Pattern Description:

Cozy up your room with a custom sweater for your lamp! Just slip these hand knit covers over a lampshade for instant coziness. You can make them in several different colors so you can make a cover for every lampshade in your house!! Make them in a pretty pastel for a child's room, a neutral color for a living room, or a seasonal color for a holiday. These covers look great in a bright color to add an unexpected pop of color to a room!

Pattern includes instructions to make cozies in two different stitch patterns: basketweave (pink shade in photos), and ribs & squares (natural color shade in photos).

Gauge:

4.25 stitches per inch and 6 rows per inch in stockinette stitch, adjust your needle size if necessary to get the right gauge

Sizing / Finished Measurements:

These lampshade covers are designed to fit lampshades sold at Target labeled "small" (5" top diameter x 10" bottom diameter x 7" high). The covers will stretch a bit so they could accommodate a shade slightly larger or smaller at the top and bottom
