Santa Claus Hat

Lion Brand® Lion® Chenille - Fun Fur

GAUGE:

14 sc + 14 rnds = 4 inches (10 cm) with MC. 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.
