Lion Brand® Lion® Cotton
GAUGE: 5 sc = 2 inches; 8 rows = 3 inches 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 less 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.

Hand-Softening Treatment
1 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
2 large plastic bags
2 rubber bands of a size to fit comfortably around your wrist
Mix the salt and oil. Rub the mixture well into your hands as if
washing them -- the salt is mildly abrasive and feels oh-so-good. Rinse
your hands in cool water just enough to remove the salt, leaving the oil on your
hands. Place a plastic bag over each hand and secure with a rubber
band. Run tap water until it is hot and soak the mitts in the hot
water until they are thoroughly wet. Remove the mitts from the water
and squeeze to dry slightly. Pop your hands into the warm mitts and enjoy
the wonderful feeling as the warmtht spreads through your hands. When the
mitts are cool, remove them and the plastic bags as well. You'll find that
there is very little oil left on your hands -- gently remove any remaining with
a soft cloth or tissue.
