1960's Crochet 'Hippie' Vest
Lion Brand® Microspun
GAUGE: 4.25 sts and 2 rows = 1 inches on Size J-10 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.
NOTES: Body is worked in one piece.
