Capelet

Lion Brand® Fun Fur® - Chenille Thick & Quick®

GAUGE:

10 sts + 21 rows = 4" [10 cm] in Garter stitch (knit every row) with 1 strand each of A and B held together.
8 sts + 14 rows = 4" [10 cm] in Stockinette stitch (k on RS, p on WS) with C.

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.
