You are going to want to block your swatch so it will lay flat. Take a t-pin and place it between one of the stockinette rows. Then take a flat ruler and put the end of your ruler next to the t-pin and place your other pin at the 4 inch mark. Then you are going to count the number of stitches between the t-pins. Divide number of stitches counted by number of inches measured. For vertical row gauge you are going to want to do the same thing. Mark a stitch with a t-pin somewhere in the middle of the bottom of the row. Then take a flat ruler and put the end of your ruler next to the t-pin and place your other pin at the 4 inch mark. Then you are going to count the number of stitches in the row between the t-pins. Divide number of stitches counted by number of inches measured. <\/p><\/li>\n\n<ol>\n\n<section id=\"amazon-link\">\n<div class=\"photo\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1596680563\/ref=as_li_ss_il?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=1596680563&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=nestada-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/ws.assoc-amazon.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=1596680563&amp;Format=_SL160_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=nestada-20\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/ws.assoc-amazon.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;ASIN=1596680563&amp;Format=_SL160_&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;WS=1&amp;tag=nestada-20\"><\/a><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=nestada-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=1596680563\" alt=\"The Harmony Guides: Knit and Purl\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=nestada-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=1596680563\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"description\">\n<h2>Like This Stitch?<\/h2>\n<p>Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1596680563\/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=1596680563&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=nestada-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Harmony Guides: Knit &amp; Purl<\/a> for more great stitches just like the ones on this site!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n[sidebar alias=&rdquo;after-post&rdquo; ]\n<\/ol>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This video knitting tutorial will help you learn how to knit measuring your gauge.
