Catch the Wave Afghan
Lion Brand® Homespun®
GAUGE: 12 st = 4" (10 cm) in Wave stitch pattern; each 12-row Wave = 3¼"
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.
