Before you begin …
…make a gauge swatch. Use the recommended needles, yarns
and pattern stitch for your gauge swatch. It should measure
approx. 12 cm x 12 cm. Cast-on and bind-off rows, as well as
selvage stitches should not be included in the measurement.
Pin your swatch and block it as you would the finished pieces
of the garment. Count stitches and rows over 10 cm. If your
gauge swatch is too small, switch to larger needles. If your
gauge swatch is too big, switch to smaller needles.
