I have a crochet question for you. I have a hard time figuring out gauge. I have been doing this for almost 30 years, but when I make a big part of a garment, even after measuring a swatch, I always seem to make the garment too wide. I've read about gauge from many sources & have all of your books, but it seems that I have to make a garment first, measure, refigure, and start over again way too many times! With knitting I can pretty much get gauge with the pattern, but not so much with crochet. I am just crazy or what?;)
Temptress!
