Recommended needle size
[always use a needle size that gives you the gauge listed below - every knitter's gauge is unique]
US N/P-15/10mm crochet hook

GAUGE
10 sts/3.5 rounds = 4 inches/10 cm in pattern stitch (start counting at v-stitch cluster), worked with chain-plied yarn
PATTERN NOTES
Chain plying is a convenient way to bulk up a thinner yarn without having to purchase 3 skeins or planning ahead when purchasing yarn. Using the resulting bulkier gauge yarn makes for a quicker project as well.
