GAUGE:

12 sts + 8 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] in Shell pattern on size 10 needle. 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 less 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.

'Famous Designer' Hat Reviewed by Nancy McHone on 2008-02-02 **
I didn't like the hat when it was finished. The design did not look as good as the picture. Even though I had the gauge correct, the hat was too loose. It is not stretchy when made with suede yarn.
