GAUGE:
12 sts + 7 rows = 5 inches (12.7 cm) in plaid pattern. 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.
Exact gauges is not imporant to this project.
NOTES:
Afghan is worked in one piece with horizontal stripes; vertical stripes are worked later over ch1-spaces.
