Make a gauge swatch: With #7 needle and 2 colors, cast on 20 stitches. Knit in any color pattern for 10 rows. Bind off. Wash your swatch like you will wash your socks. After it is dry, measure across the middle 3” and figure your gauge here. Work at it, changing needle sizes if necessary, until you get 4 stitches = 1” (wide width) or 4.5 stitches = 1” (medium width)
