10 x 10 cm = 18 stitches and 32 f rows in stockinette stitch using size 3.5 mm tips

It is very important to check your gauge and measure the tension correctly to achieve the same results and measurements as the pattern.

If the gauge is different, try adjusting the needle size up or down by half a size until you get the correct measurement.

Join in the round: slip first stich purl-wise from left to right needle, pass the last stich over the slipped stitch and drop it, pull the cast-on end tightening the stitch, place one SM (BOR) to mark the beginning and the end of the round; take care to move it at every round.

RS = right side of the work
WS = wrong side of the work
SM = stitch marker
SM (BOR): stitch marker of the beginning of the round
M-SM = move the SM
col = color
