GAUGE:

10 stitches + 12 rows = 4" (10 cm) in single crochet; each block = 6" x 8" (15 x 20 cm).

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 less 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.

NOTES:

Each skein makes approximately 4 to 5 squares. Mix and match projects as desired.
Hat and Scarf 1 skein each C, D, E, F, and G
Baby Sweater 1 skein each C, D, F, and G

Tassel (Make 2)

Slide a double strand of yarn under the top of the tassel and tie tightly. Cut other end open to remove cardboard. Cut another strand of yarn, wrap it tightly around the tassel several times a little below the top knot. Knot, and weave in ends. Attach one tassel each at top corners of hat.
