01

The yarn you have

Weigh what’s left in each color.

02

Your sample squares

Same size. Your own measured yarn use.

How do I measure each color?

Weigh each yarn before and after making a sample. Include the yarn tails you use. For small amounts, make several matching samples and divide the total by the number made. Use the same yarn, hook and tension. Enter 0 for a color that is not used.

The finishing touches

Keep the extras separate.

10% is an editable planning choice, not a tested accuracy margin.

Set aside yarn for joins & border

Enter your own finishing estimate. Size settings do not calculate this yarn. Leave blank for a body-only estimate; enter 0 only if you intend no extra yarn for that color.
