Straight to the point and so very helpful! Thank you ☺️

Didn't even think about washing the gauge and measuring it...thanks for the tips!

After washing the swatch should you use different yarn that has never been washed? That's what I'm thinking.

I actually just started a top that I am mkaing for myself to wear & I didn't make a guage. What do you suggest that I do?
