Gauge Calculator & Pattern Resizer
Calculate your gauge from a swatch, resize patterns to a new gauge, and get exact stitch counts.
Measure your swatch, count the stitches and rows, and we'll calculate your gauge.
💡 Gauge Tips
- Always wash your swatch before measuring — many yarns grow or shrink after washing.
- Measure in the middle of the swatch, not at the edges, for the most accurate count.
- Half stitches matter. A gauge of 18 vs 18.5 stitches can make a sweater 2 inches too small.
- Row gauge changes more between knitters than stitch gauge — check both if length matters.
