I have a quick question about gauge…
I have the right # of stitches, but I’m one row short for my instructions. It is a lace pattern, so there will be stretching – it’s a shawl-collar jacket knitted in the round. Like a big doily with sleeves added on.
will I be okay, you think? I dunno what to do, since the # of stitches is exactly perfect.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

thanks!
i was hoping somebody would say that! i was thinking to myself…
"instructions call for 4 sts & 9 rows per inch over garter stitch – i’ve got 4 sts & 8-ish rows per inch – #5 yarn, #10 needles – it’ll stretch a bit – blocking will make all the difference"
so, thanks a bunch, and i’ll keep my fingers crossed (except while i’m knittng!)
