Printable sheets
Three sheets that make your knitting easier to keep track of. Free to print, and free to share.
Row counter
260 tick boxes, ten per line, with room for notes beside them.
Gauge swatch
Write down your measurements before and after washing, and see what to do if they don't match.
Project log
Yarn, dye lot, needle, changes and finished measurements. Everything you need to knit the garment again.
The sheet prints on A4. To save it instead, choose “Save as PDF” in the print dialog.
Row counter
Tick one box for each round. Note what happens in the margin: increase, decrease, colour change.
Gauge swatch
Knit at least 15 × 15 cm. Wash it and let it dry flat before you measure. Measure in the middle, not at the edge.

What now?
- More stitches over 10 cm than the pattern: you knit tighter. Go up one needle size.
- Fewer stitches over 10 cm than the pattern: you knit looser. Go down one needle size.
- Stitches match but rows don't: follow the stitches. The length is given in cm in the pattern.
- Both match: start the garment.
