Seasonably Chic Hood
Lion Brand® Wool-Ease® Chunky
GAUGE: 11 sts + 30 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in Brioche Rib with larger needle. 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.

| Seasonably Chic Hood Reviewed by ASHLEY A BEDO on 2011-01-12 |

Great! First time following a patter, so i was sort of confused at first.. but just by basic stuff you would probably know how to do if you read from patterns. I like to stray of and do my own thing though usually.. I wanted to make this larger but even after making it bigger it seems to not make much of a difference. Now I noticed they have a larger one with more of the look I was going for.
Oh I made one for my little niece and my sister for Christmas so they could match. They were a huge hit! <3
