Can you count my stitches & rows please

#1

hello all,

Managed to get my knitting nice and neat for my niece’s ballet wrap top and just finished the first piece which is the left front. Trouble is if I am counting the swatch square I have marked off with pins then it seems I have made it half the size it should be.

Can you help me please I think I have measured 22 stitches across and 30 rows down

what do you make it?

Thanks for your trouble

I count 15 rows and 11 stitches between the pins.

so I guess i have been counting the stitiches and rows wrong then

so one complete v is a stitch and one complete v is a row :??

If that is so then my knitting appears to be perfect. unfortunately my neice is a 4 hour drive away and her mum isn’t the best at measuring her. the trouble is the length just looks so short and obviously I cannot measure the chest as it is a wrap top.

guess I will just have to continue and hope for the best at least if it works out too small it will fit her little sister - just hope it comes out the right shape. :eyebrow:

Yes, one complete V is a stitch and a row.

And yes, you’re knitting looks perfectly fine! :happydance:
