Interesting calculator for working in a different gauge to pattern

General Knitting

I have not used this, just came across it, but it looks helpful. This is for those times when you can’t get the gauge needed for a sweater pattern (maybe yarn was subbed or we just like the fabric in a tighter or more open gauge or want to use a different weight yarn) and then the question of which size to make, or if it’s even possible.

I usually do the calculations myself but this calculator apparently works out which size to make in the pattern.

Perfect timing! My gauge is a wee bit off (22 instead of 20) for the “Tric” cardi I’m starting, but I like the fabric and think it would be too loose if I go up a needle size.
