It’s tough, and frustrating, to do the math to figure out how many stitches you need to knit to make your stitches even across the row. We’ve all been there and we all hate doing the math. Well, you’re in luck! I’ll do it for you ?. And if you don’t know how to M1 (make 1 or increase) scroll down the page or click this link to watch the video.
Using the calculator below will give you evenly spaced increases across the length of your work. All you need to enter is the number of stitches you have on your needle and the number of stitches you need to increase. Everything is calculated for you with a single click!
I know that sometimes the stitches are a little off on the ends. Adjust accordingly if it bothers you. I really was focused on the making the increases centered in the work with even spacing between the stitches.
I want to be completely transparent in where this knitting calculator and the decreasing calculator originated. I did not write the code myself. After much tweaking of this query to ChatGPT, I’ve developed a stitch calculator to determine how to increase evenly across your work. I knew what I wanted, I just didn’t know how to write the code to make it happen. AI is useful after all!
This. Is. Fantastic! I’m going to bookmark this page for future reference and I’m sharing it with my knitting friends. Thank you from the bottom of my mathematically challenged heart!
I know this will be a game-changer for me, my math skills suck! I saved it to my Pinterest page?. I can’t figure out how to share this on FB though?.
If you copy the url in the an address bar and paste it into your post, it will automatically link with the picture.
I’ll add icons to click a share when I get time.
Fantastic! Thank you for this!
