GAUGE:

4 1/2 hdc + 4 rows = 4 in. (10 cm). 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.

NOTES:

To change color, work last stitch of old color to last yarn over. Yarn over with next color and draw through all loops on hook to complete stitch. Carry colors not in use along wrong side of work.
