Adjusting your knitting plans based you your gauge swatch

So you made a gauge swatch and jt doesn’t match the gauge listed in the pattern. What next? Or what if you start a knitting project without swatching (like I did) and then realize your gauge is off (like I did) and need to change your plans?

In this video I will break down all the steps I take when it doesn’t match… what to consider, how to decide what will work and learn how to do the math to figure it out for yourself. I also chat about sizing, grading and ease along the way.

Swatching isn’t always fun but it IS always useful when the size and fit is important, like in a handknit sweater! Put your time and hard work towards something you will love!
