GAUGE:
20 stitches and 28 rows = 4” in reverse stockinette stitch on size 7 needles
Notes on Gauge: Originally Lovely Cria yarn has quite a bit of bounce and both the row gauge and stitch gauge change after being blocked. Because of this, it is important to wet block and dry your gauge swatch to get an accurate measurement and assure a proper fit of your sweater.
Although Cria is listed as a worsted weight yarn, if substituting for another fiber (such as merino), you may find it easier to meet gauge using a DK weight.
