GAUGE:
9 sc + 9 rnds = 4 in. [10 cm] in sc with 1 strand of A and 2 strands of B held tog, before felting. 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.
Exact gauges is not imporant to this project.

NOTES:
Pillow is worked with 1 strand of Fishermen's Wool and 2 strands of Fun Fur held tog throughout.
