- Hi my name is Jane and I am a beginner at knitting. I'm knitting a plain Jane, I have right needles and wool I have 35 stitches but only measuring 18cm. So just wondering how many stitches I should do help would be greatful.

Hi Jane,
Your discussion appeared in the KAS FINANCES category. I am moving it to Questions, Answers and Help where it might get more attention. I see you already have some answers - hope they were helpful
Thank both for your help x
You will find however that you may need to adjust the amount of stitches whenever you use a different brand of wool. This is called your tension and it differs for every kind of wool you use and every knitter. A little trial and error each time you start a new brand is worth the time in checking your tension. (What works for me, may differ for you)
Hello Jane, welcome to KAS. I'd suggest you try 39 sts. If you knit a few rows and measure again this should work out at 20cms for you. Karen x
