Let's say you are knitting a pattern and you want to make it longer to use up more yarn. What do you do? Here's how I worked out how many extra repeats I could do on the #seacoastwrapkal ⠀ ⠀ 1. Weigh your yarn. ⠀ 2. Work at least 1 repeat. ⠀ 3. Weigh the yarn you have left. ⠀ 4. Subtract #3 from #1.⠀ 5. Count the # of repeats you still need (20 in color A, section 3). ⠀ 6. Multiply #4 x #5. This is how much yarn you still need. ⠀ 7. Subtract #6 from #3. This is how much "extra" yarn you have available. ⠀ 8. Divide #7 by #4. This is how many repeats you can work with the extra yarn left. Don't work all available repeats, though, as you'll want some wiggle room! ⠀ ⠀ 1. I started with 54g.⠀ 2. I worked 2 repeats. ⠀ 3. Ended with 52 g. ⠀ 4. Works out to 1g per repeat.⠀ 5. 20 repeats still needed in section 3.⠀ 6. 1g x 20 repeats = 20g needed. ⠀ 7. 52g left - 20g needed = 32g left. ⠀ 8. 32g left / 1g per repeat = 32 repeats possible. ⠀ ⠀ I will be adding 15 extra requests in sections 2 and 4.⠀ ⠀ #knitsharelove #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyshop #knitting #knittips #kixkatdesigns https://www.instagram.com/p/CEKDw94gN54/?igshid=1vyogxcsqjgyb
