Inch Knitting
How do I estimate enough yarn for a knitting project?
I have 750 yards of sport weight yarn, size #7 needles at 8 stitches per inch. I want to make a rectangular shawl, garter stitch, maybe 12 inches by 60 inches or bigger.
I found a calculator for you:

knit a swatch and then measure. Submit the calculations, and then you’ll know if you have enough. Unravel the swatch and re-knit when you’re done.
If you come up short, try making stripes or knit an accent color on the ends with a novelty yarn. Also, if you don’t have enough, use a bigger needle size and re-measure your swatch
