Baby Animal 'Big Bear' Hat
Lion Brand® Lion® Suede - Fun Fur
GAUGE: 12 sts + 19 rows = 4” [10 cm] in St st (k on RS, p on WS) with
A on largest needles.
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.
STITCH EXPLANATION: |

and knit them, pulling yarn tightly across the back of the work. (Do
not turn work.) Rep from * to make cord.
