GAUGE:

10 sts = 4 in. (10 cm) over Pattern Stitch. 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.

I made this pattern in blues, and it is beautiful. It took me less than two days to complete it, and it looks very complex.
