Knitting gauge planner

Use your swatch to plan stitches and rows while respecting repeat and edge-stitch constraints.

Your input

Outputs are cleared when the input changes.

Result

Enter your data or use the example, then run the tool.

Worked example

20 stitches/10 cm needs 70 for 35 cm. Repeat 4 + edges 2 permits 70; a 34 cm target rounds to 70, achieving 35 cm.

Method

Divide measured counts by dimensions, multiply by targets, then choose edge stitches plus whole repeats and report achieved size.

Limits

No garment grading, ease choice or automatic redesign. Use the same stitch structure and measurement conditions as the project.
