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. The needle or hook size called for in the pattern is based on what the designer used, but it is not unusual for gauge to vary from person to person. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make your swatch, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles. Making a Gauge Swatch 1. Afghan is made in 2 sections. The sections are constructed in an interesting way sometimes working sts across existing pieces and sometimes sewing pieces together. 2. Take a careful look at the diagram before beginning so that you understand the construction process. Continue to refer to the diagram as you work. 3. Section I of the Afghan is made from 17 rectangles; Section II is made of 16 rectangles. 4. The assembled sections are sewn together to make the Afghan.
