 | 2. Crochet test
Before starting any crochet, it is advisable to work a 10-boxes * 10-boxes mesh test. Measure the height and width of this stitch test and compare it with the crochet pattern.
In this way, differences that can always arise can be balanced out, depending on your crochet style or what kind of material was used.
(Crochet tightly or loosely, fine or coarser yarn, small or larger crochet hooks always determine a crochet result in its size!)
|
|
Example:
A pattern has a declared height of 16 Inches = 61 boxes.
Your mesh test with 10 boxes * 10 boxes results in a height of 2.5 Inch. ---> This results in:
61 boxes (from pattern) * 2.4 Inch = 14.6 Inches; so 1.4 Inch too short!
For this 1.4 Inch, boxes must be added in order to reach the specified height of 16 Inches! ---> 61 boxes actually give you 14.6 Inches;
1 box would be 0.24 Inch (14.6 Inches / 61); 16 Inches / 0.24 = 66.7 boxes
Conclusion: In order to reach a height of 16 Inches, you would have to crochet 67 boxes instead of the given 61 boxes!

| In filet crocheting, single crochets LM, half double crochets ST, double crochets D-ST, triple crochet DR-ST,
single crochets FM, slip stitches KM are crocheted. |

 | 4. Crochet start / Stitch pickup |
|
Every crochet is started in the first row with chain stitches LM. The number of LM is calculated as follows:
1. Number of total boxes * 3 chain stitches LM = ...
2. 1 box * 4 chain stitches LM = 4 LM
Result : sum of 1. + 2. (3 of them are chain stitches LM for the next row).
