Gauge:

Step: 4

2 V-sts + 3 rows = 5 in. (12.5 cm) in V-st pattern with 1 strand each of A, B and C held together. 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.
