Hi Beth, For a big project like this I’d make a sample of say a dozen or so stitches, measure it and multiply it from there. The number of stitches you’ll need will depend a little on your tension as well as the hook size and yarn weight, but this method should give you an idea what you’re aiming for. Hope that helps!

Hi Helen, Thanks! A major typo on the last line is never a good thing to have 🙂

A note about the last bit of your post – isn’t the USA Double the same as a UK Treble, not the UK single.
