GAUGE
26 stitches x 35 rows = 10 x 10 cm in stockinette stitch on needle size 3 mm. Measuring the net stitch can be particularly tricky. Create a stockinette stitch sample to pinpoint the perfect yarn and needle size for knitting your Orange Trousers.
Make a swatch to achieve the same gauge as indicated above. Needle size is only a guide. If you get too many stitches on 10 cm = 4”, change to a larger needle size. If you get too few stitches on 10 cm = 4”, change to a smaller needle size.
