gauge

The pattern says that you use a size I and K hook. The gauge swatch shows to different sizes but only a size I hook. What are the correct gauges??

Use the smaller hook to get

Use the smaller hook to get gauge. We got the gauge with a size I-9, but your tension may vary so always work a test swatch. The larger hook, which should be two sizes larger than the hook you use to get gauge, will be used when you work the peplum at the bottom of the sweater.
