GAUGE:

5 sts and 7 rows = 1" on Size 6 needles in pat st. 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.

Loving Memories Lacy Bunting Reviewed by Terri St.Clair on 2008-07-15
this pattern turned out beautifully. I did one in white with pastle butterfly buttons down the fron and across the bottom. I then entwined lavender along the botton and around the wrist and across the bonnet. I like the way the hood can lay back and just have the stand up collar if the baby gets fussy. Thanks so much for sharing.This is going to a new born in Iceland.
