GauGe
Exact gauge is essential for proper ft. Before
beginning your project, make the sample swatch
given in the individual instructions in the yarn
and hook specifed. After completing the swatch,
measure it, counting your stitches and rows
carefully. If your swatch is larger or smaller than
specifed, make another, changing hook size to
get the correct gauge. Keep trying until you fnd
the size hook that will give you the specifed gauge.
Once proper gauge is obtained, measure width of
garment approximately every 3" (7.5 cm) to be sure
gauge remains consistent.
