GAUGE:

12 dc = 4 inches (10 cm) on larger hook. 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.

Child's Popcorn-Stitch Pullover Reviewed by Katie Ross-Olds on 2008-08-28
I have made this sweater 2 times for my granddaughter. I just used a little bit bigger hook to make it a bit bigger. (ages 4 and 6). It is really quite easy and goes fast. The arms appear a bit long, but when on it is perfect.
