Stretch Percentage Guide

Most knit patterns are drafted for a certain amount of stretch, and this one-page guide makes checking your fabric simple. Print it at home, hold your fabric at the marks and stretch it until you feel resistance to read its stretch percentage, then let it go to check how well it recovers. Keep it by your cutting table for every knit project.
