Sara has been getting really into baking and Heather tells about the monster hiding in her shower.&amp;nbsp;    Next, Sara tells Heather everything she wanted to know about crochet gauge but was afraid to ask. Gauge is the number of stitches and the number of rows in a given stitch pattern within a certain number of inches, usually 4 inches. In its simplest form, gauge is just counting and understanding how you crochet. Sara and Heather demystify when it's more important to create a gauge swatch and how to adjust your gauge to for a pattern. &amp;nbsp;    Finally, the two chat about the new all-cables collection in WeCrochet Magazine Issue 4. Cables are a style of crochet (or knitting) in which textures of crossing layers are achieved by rearranging stitches. This collection, Off the Beaten Path, really showcases some exquisite crochet craftship as well as serves to help welcome the cool weather of the fall. Come get inspired to take on one of these projects.&amp;nbsp;    &amp;nbsp;    &amp;nbsp;    Mentioned in this episode:&amp;nbsp;Swatch Ruler and Needle Gauge&amp;nbsp;  Universal 4&quot; Tool&amp;nbsp;  Gauge Swatch Ruler Mini Tool&amp;nbsp;  Row counter&amp;nbsp;  Article about The Golden Loop  WeCrochet Magazine Issue 4  Funicular Cowl by Kathleen Berlew, tested by Nicole Perry  Swish Worsted&amp;nbsp;  Railway Hill Set by Anastasia Popova, tested by Tacia McIntosh  Brava Sport  Stitch Markers&amp;nbsp;  Henry Street Jumper, tested by Stephanie McMillan&amp;nbsp;  Swish DK  Belleville Sweater by Natasha Robarge, tested by Beate Englehardt  Hawthorne Tonal  Aloft  Columbia River Cabled Hat by Alla Koval, tested by Erika Loftin  Andean Treasure  Cascina Cabled Headband by Qualyn Stark, tested by Nicole Perry  Capra DK    Timestamps:0:00 Welcome to the WeCrochet Podcast 016 Heather and Sara share about their other hobbies 3:57 Sara and Heather talk about gauge 22:30 Send us your questions! 23:03 Heather and Sara talk about the new collection, Off the Beaten Path 30:46 Credits  &amp;nbsp;   &amp;nbsp; ","author_name":"WeCrochet Podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/wecrochetpodcast.libsyn.com\/website","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/15786122\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/82132676"}
