GAUGE
24 stitches and 34 rounds = 4 inches in Diamond Slip Stitch pattern (see Notes)
SIZES
NOTE: Cashmere tends to stretch, so this pattern is designed with negative ease. This means to choose a size with a finished circumference that is smaller than the wearer’s head or hands. (The ease on the hand warmers is slightly less because it’s less fabric.) For more information about negative ease and help picking a size, please check out our Understanding Ease + Selecting Size Tutorial!
