Gauge Guide

We recommend you to make a gauge swatch before starting a project,  so that you can make sure the measurements on your finished garment will have the same ones suggested in the pattern. This guide will help you find the right yarns and needle size for your project. However, please note that everyone knits in different tension, you may need to adjust the needle size to achieve the gauge.
