Tools Tuesday – check your gauge!

Tools Tuesday – check your gauge!

This week’s tool feature is gauge checking tools! Before your next accessory or garment, it is important to check that your gauge is accurate. Gauge = stitcher + yarn + needle or hook. All three of these play a part in how loose or tight your project is.  Here are some tools to help you count the number of stitches on your swatch (and always be sure to block it first).
Akerworks Swatch Gauge: $17.50
fibre space Wood Gauge Tool: $13
Katrinkles Knit Gauge Swatch Key: $9
Ann Budd Knits Handy Gauge Ruler: $5
