Pattern Resize Calculator
Your pattern gauge does not match your yarn or tension? Calculate a new stitch count for the finished width you actually want — then see the rounding rule, repeat multiple and expected finished width.
Resize the stitch count
Use 1 if the pattern has no stitch multiple.
Stitches per 10 cm or 4 in.
Measured after washing/blocking when relevant.
Used to show the pattern’s original finished width.
132 stitches
At your gauge, 132 stitches gives an expected finished width of 60.0 cm.
Pattern original: 120 stitches at 20 sts / 10 cm = 60.0 cm.

When to use it
Use this when your measured stitch gauge differs from the pattern and you need a stitch count for a specific finished width.
What it does not replace
Garment ease, shaping, neckline construction, armholes and designer-specific instructions still need to be checked separately.
Check before you commit
Make a proper swatch and compare the calculated width before using expensive yarn or making irreversible changes.
