Yardage Estimator
The following table shows estimated yardage needed according to your gauge. Yardage shown is for an average long-sleeved pullover (sweater) or cardigan according to chest measurements, allowing for a 2" wearing ease in the finished garment (i.e. finished garment chest would be chest measurement + 2"). For short-sleeved sweaters, reduce yardage by about 20%, and for sleeveless sweaters and children's garments, reduce it by about 30%. Add 10% to 20% for textured & multi-colored patterns.Gauge sts/4" or 10 cm |
