When using 2 strands DROPS Alpaca and hook 4 mm we got the measures we have on the cardigan in the picture. Remember to always use original yarn to assure to get the right gauge and measurements on your finished garment and remember to always swatch first.

Since I am making it for my niece for Xmas and she is between an XS and S, I'm afraid this is going to be WAY too big. I'll do up a couple of more squares and lay them out AND convert the cm on the illustration to inches and see if I can make it work. Just something others may want to keep in mind!

I've started this, using a similar yarn and correct crochet hook. I'm a pretty tight crocheter, however; the measurements are off. Each square is supposed to be 4 1/4" but that is the measurement after the 4th row. The 5th row makes this a much larger square.
