Source disagreement
Sandnes publishes 21–20 sts per 10 cm; Mother Knitter publishes 21–22 sts per 10 cm. Filter uses the manufacturer values; check your ball band and swatch. Source 1 Source 2
We retain source units. Published pairings of 4 inches and 10 cm are approximate. “Not verified” means no supported value is recorded here; it does not mean the yarn lacks that property.
