Choosing the right YARN and HOOK to achieve great results
Check yarn weight here: www.ravelry.com/help/yarn/weights
Hook size: 4.0 mm (G) or hook to obtain gauge.
Gauge: 17 double crochet stitches and 8.5 rows = 10 cm (4”). Please get the gauge to make sure the sweater fits your size!
Crochet 9 rows of 21 dc-sts and measure the width of central 17 dc. 17 dc in 8.5 rows = 10 x 10 cm (3.94’’ x 3.94’’). If the width is correct, but the length of rows is smaller use a bigger hook and vice versa.
