GAUGE:
6 stitches = 5" [12.5 cm] in garter stitch (knit every row). 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:
For easiest use, wind the yarn into a ball.

Remove the band and carefully cut the 4 pieces of string binding the hank.

Have a friend place her or his hands in the center of the yarn loop, resting it on the forearms.

Widen the arms to make the loop taut.

(You may use a chair back if a friend is not available.) Find one of the yarn ends and wind the yarn into a ball.
