Little Luxury Kimono

Lion Brand® Lion® Cashmere Blend

GAUGE:

17 sts + 25 rows = 4 in. [10 cm] in St st (k on RS, p on WS). 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.

Little Luxury Kimono Reviewed by Missie Cullop on 2011-04-30 *****
Just finished this as a gift for a friend. It is a wonderful pattern to work with and actually finished it in two evenings. The only change I made to the pattern was to add a garter stitch edge of 5 rows to prevent rolling on bottom and sleeves.
