Have you every finished a project,
A Hat, Scarf or Blanket and
the size was nothing like the pattern said?
And You even made a Gauge Swatch!

Today, we are talking about measuring as you go.
Because even if you made a swatch, that does not
mean you are crocheting at the same gauge,
as you did your gauge swatch.

How Do We "Measure As We Go"?
1. Measure the thing or person who is going to use
what you are making?
I always keep my Tape measure and Short Ruler next to me.
I measure everything.
2. Measure what you are making often.
says it will be sized.
3. Do not finish your item, and then measure and
get mad at the Designer of the Pattern.
Even if you used the same hook and yarn,
you may not match the tension of the Pattern Designer.
Even When you purchase pre-made items in the store,
not every item in that size, color and style
will be exactly the same.
4. REMEMBER, Everyone Crochets differently,
and with different tensions.
Even your emotions can determine how
loose or tight you crochet.
I even Crochet tighter when I am watching
an intense movie!
Your tape measure is one of the most important
tools in your crochet bag.
