Gauge
18 sts & 32 rows = 4″ / 10cm in pattern after blocking.
Gauge is not crucial for this project as long as you achieve a fabric that feels good to you. If you want to swatch, you can knit 6 rows garter stitch + 2 rows stockinette stitch.
Pattern Note: Weave in your ends as you go! Use the Weavin’ Stephen technique so you don’t have to sew in all the yarn tails from the marled color changes. Watch this Westknits video to assist with this technique. https://youtu.be/Fz292NAjH2M
