What is Tension and Gauge when it comes to Crochet?
What is Tension?
Tension is basically how tight or loose you Crochet Hook.
What is Gauge?
Gauge is determined By Rows X Stitches. The Yarn label will state
For Example:
For Example:
US 1/ 5.5 MM Crochet Hook
12 S X 15 R = 4 X 4 inch swatch
This means 12 single crochet stitches X 15 Rows
will equal a Gauge swatch that is
4 inches wide X 4 inches tall.
Why is this important?
It will help you determine how tight your tension is.
If Your swatch measures bigger or small them it should, you know you need to change your tension.
