Compare the pattern gauge with your blocked swatch, then turn the mismatch into usable stitch and row counts for your project.

What this tutorial covers
Create the project.
Choose the project type and add the details you want to keep with the work.
Compare both gauges.
Enter the pattern gauge and your blocked-swatch gauge so Stitchwise can reconcile stitches and rows separately.
Add measurements and references.
Include optional project measurements, notes, and PDF attachments alongside the calculation.
Review the reconciled counts.
See the adjusted stitch and row counts beside the pattern values before you start or continue the project.
What happens next
Stitchwise uses stitch gauge for widths and row gauge for lengths, giving you counts that match your swatch instead of assuming both gauges changed by the same amount.
