* indicates required. The Linen and Threads' Cross Stitch Corner Gauge is a new cross stitch tool to help you determine where to start stitching. The wooden corner gauge measures 3 square and has 3 starting points (2, 2 1/2 and 3) depending upon your framing allowance. Mark your starting spot with a pin and you are ready to begin stitching your project.
Since its edges do not curl, garter stitch is often used for borders. Before you begin the scarf, follow our basic knitting instructions to knit a gauge swatch in stockinette stitch using size-9 needles and Aran-weight yarn. 4 stitches and 6 rows equal 1 inch. Finished size of scarf: 8 by 60 inches. For this craft we use the abbreviations: k (knit), p (purl), sts (stitches).
