GAUGE: 1 ripple (measured from valley to valley) = 3½”; 6½ rows = 4” in ripple st pattern at lower edge. Notes: Stitch gauge at top will not be the same because the ripple pattern flattens out as stitches are decreased in the valleys. Row gauge is given for lower section of cozy only (before shoulder shaping), as more rows are worked and the piece is worn, the cozy will lengthen. CHECK YOUR GAUGE. Use any size hook to obtain the gauge.
