Gauge & Yarn

Quick estimate uses measured average yarn consumption per square inch for your stitch & yarn weight. For best accuracy, measure a swatch.

Gauge is used for the stitch-count estimate. Work a 4" swatch with your yarn & hook for accuracy.

Check your yarn label. Default based on weight.
