A note on gauge: Your gauge will depend on what size needle you’re using. My size large on size two needles was about 7-8 stitches per inch in stockinette stitch. A size medium on size one needles will likely end up around 9-10 stitches to the inch in stockinette.

My design was inspired by the yarn I spun from sock batts purchased from a local fiber artist, http://www.feistywomandesigns.etsy.com. You can use any fingering weight commercial or handspun yarn, though solid or semi-solid yarns will work best.

For the foreseeable future, 100% of the sale price of all patterns sold will go to the BRESMA Orphanage for their work in Haiti. (after Paypal fees)

The orphanage does wonderful things for the children of Haiti. Their buildings were all damaged or destroyed in the quake and now of course the needs of Haiti’s children are even greater.
