26 sts x 32 rows in stitch pattern using 4 mm needles, after blocking.
It is important to knit a gauge swatch and block it as some yarns and stitch patterns will grow after they are blocked. Make note of the length of your swatch before and after blocking, this will help you achieve the desired length and width if you wish to do something different than the example measurements given in the pattern.
