Gauge: not particularly important.
Finished dimensions:Approx. 8in (20cm) square
Materials:
1 skein Lily Sugar 'n Cream (100% cotton), Violet Veil Ombre colorway [2oz / 56g to 95yd / 86m]
US 8 (5.0mm) needles
Darning needle
Special Stitches:
FC = Front Cross: K2tog, do not slip stitches from left needle, knit first stitch again, slip stitches off needle. Alternate: Knit into second stitch on left needle, then into first stitch, slip stitches off needle.
Kbl = Knit through the back loop: Insert right needle into back of loop from front to back, knit the stitch.
Pbl = Purl through the back loop: Inster right needle into back of loop from back to front, purl the stitch. Note: a lot of people hate Pbl'ing... if you don't care about the extra texture this will create (by twisting the stitch) you can purl normally. I would still recommend doing the Kbl.
