Finally an explanation that I can understand. Thank you very much. You are a gifted teacher.

I just recently discovered you! I am homebound and self-taught thanks to YT videos. The things you are addressing are topics I have greatly needed and I can’t thank you enough! Blessings to you. ❤️🙏🏼❤️

Thank you so much for watching, Linda! Please let me know if you ever have things you'd like covered! So happy to have you here!

This couldn’t have been a more timely topic as I’ve been dealing with this very issue with a sweater I’m planning to make. The yarn I want to use is a lighter fingering than the pattern calls for but I don’t particularly care for the fabric with larger needles. So I’ve been working on figuring out if I can make one of the larger sizes rather than refiguring every count individually. So your tutorial was just the thing for me! Keep up the wonderful work!

Oh yay, thanks fantastic, Carlyn! Thanks so much for watching and enjoy making that sweater!

What a great episode Meaghan. I have struggled with gauge on occasion and have tried changing sizes and needle types but still didn't get gauge. I never thought of knitting a different size because I didn't know how to get the size I would need for my arms. BTW, love seeing both your puppy and your Hudson Bay blanket (fellow Canadian) in your videos.

Thanks so much for watching, Val! I'm glad you enjoy Moo being there. ;) And the blanket... a prized possession for me! Having grown up in Canada I've always loved the look of their blankets and mugs. That was a gift from my Mum a few years ago (along with two matching coffee mugs!). And I'm also glad you enjoyed the episode! If you ever have questions about adjusting for size just let me know!

You're welcome, Joan!

[@kayladernier1314]

Is there any chance that you have a printable with these formulas on it? Thank you so much!

[@TheUnapologeticKnitter]

Hi Kayla! Thanks for watching! I don't have the formula's worked up in a separate document. I've gone back and forth between having them in the comments or on the screen as I chat but nothing to download directly. Happy knitting!
