Stitch multiples refer to the number of stitches required for ONE COMPLETE REPEAT of a specific stitch pattern or motif in a knitting pattern.

Often written "Multiple of 7 PLUS 2" (or Multiple of 4 PLUS 1) The PLUS stitches reflect any additional stitches needed complete a repeat.

To calculate the number of stitches needed to accurately position a stitch pattern for your project:

1. Enter the number of cast on stitches from the pattern

2. Enter the stitch multiple of a single repeat (ie 4 Plus 1)

3. Enter the PLUS number (1)

The tool will calculate the number of stitches needed to include full repeats of the stitch pattern .
Adjust your cast on stitch count accordingly.
