So, say your scarf is right now 12 inches wide and you have 25 stitches. 25 stitches divided by 12 inches is 2.0855. Well, all those decimals are annoying, so you can just round it to the nearest half inch. That means 2. That's your gauge - 2 stitches per inch.
Since its edges do not curl, garter stitch is often used for borders. Before you begin the scarf, follow our basic knitting instructions to knit a gauge swatch in stockinette stitch using size-9 needles and Aran-weight yarn. 4 stitches and 6 rows equal 1 inch. Finished size of scarf: 8 by 60 inches. For this craft we use the abbreviations: k (knit), p (purl), sts (stitches).
