When knitting a garment from a published pattern, in order to ensure the garment will fit as intended, it is necessary to make sure that you can match the gauge quoted in the pattern. We all knit differently so the needle size suggested in the pattern may not be the needle size you require to achieve that gauge, so it is important to make a gauge swatch (or swatches) to find out what needle size you need to match the gauge.Making a gauge swatch also lets you find out how the yarn knits up and if there is a stitch pattern, whether you enjoy knitting that stitch pattern
If you are interested in our Top Down Jumper Workshop, we recommend coming along to this workshop beforehand to work out the best yarn to use. If you would like to come along to both, add each workshop to your cart for an exclusive discount.
