GAUGE:

13 stitches + 20 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE.

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.

Hooded Coverup Reviewed by Jan Kinne on 2009-01-05 *****
Quick and easy to finish. I knitted two in a week, size 1.
