Ruffrageous Dog Sweater
Lion Brand® Wool-Ease® - Ruffles®
GAUGE:
20 sts + 22 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) with smaller needles and A in St st (k on RS, p on WS).
16 sts = 4 in. (10 cm) with larger needles and C in Rev St st (p on RS, k 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.
