GAUGE: 17.5 sts and 24 rows = 4" (10 cm) on Size 7 (4.5 mm) needles in pattern st. 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.

| I just finished this pattern I got allot of praise for it. I like wearing it, its cool in the summer and it keeps me warm in those heavily air-conditioned buildings. I think its pretty cool. I would really recommend this pattern.
