Lion Brand® Babysoft®

GAUGE:

9 sts + 7 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] in Baby Blocks pattern using 2 strands of yarn held together.

NOTE

BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Pom-Pom Blanket Reviewed by Monica Giles on 2009-04-05 *****
I've made this blanket twice, choosing my own colors each time. It was a huge success at both baby showers. I noticed it works up a bit larger than the picture suggests, so definitely check the gauge if you want it to be precise. I'm sure I'll be making this one again!
