Up or down a size

Yesterday a customer asked me about gauge: what do I do if I'm too tight or too loose? I told her you either go up or down a hook/needle size.

Then I came up with a great analogy: if you're pants are too tight, you go up a size and if they're too loose, you go down a size. Well, the same thing holds true for your gauges!!!

Simple, right!!!?

I thought so!

HAPPY STITCHING, my friends!!
