Collection: Measuring tools

Measuring tools

Measuring tools help you check that your knitting matches the size it’s meant to be, from gauge swatches to finished garment measurements. The collection covers the bits you reach for when accuracy matters, like rulers, gauge guides, and tape measures suited to handwork. Getting your measurements right early saves you from reworking a piece later.

How to use: Knit a gauge swatch and measure your stitches and rows against the count given in your pattern before you start the main project. Use a tape measure to check length as you go, such as sleeve or body measurements, so you can adjust before binding off.
