To see how to take these specific measurements, I recommend checking out the Standard Body Sizing page from the Craft Yarn Council.

To figure out how many stitches to cast on knitting or loom knitting, I recommend my Interactive Knitting Calculators. They do the math for you!

For those interested, the following formulas are used to calculate the number of stitches to cast on and number of rows to reach the desired length. First knit a gauge swatch at least 4″ x 4″

Cast-On:
S = stitches in swatch
W = width of swatch in inches
S/W = stitches per inch
dW = desired width

Cast On = dW x (S/W)

Rows Needed:
R = rows in swatch
L = length of swatch in inches
R/L = rows per inch
dL = desired length

Rows Needed = dL x (R/L)
