Formula

Shaping rows = Math.ceil(Math.abs(end-start)/change_per_row); Base interval = Math.floor(rows/Math.ceil(Math.abs(end-start)/change_per_row)); Long intervals = rows%Math.ceil(Math.abs(end-start)/change_per_row)

Worked example

Inputs

Start: 80 stitches
End: 60 stitches
Rows: 40 rows
Change per row: 2 stitches

Expected results

Shaping rows: 10 rows
Base interval: 4 rows
Long intervals: 0 intervals

How to use this tool

Enter the measured quantities and your own planning assumptions.
Review all calculated outputs and the stated limitations.

Try this example

{
  "start": 80,
  "end": 60,
  "rows": 40,
  "change_per_row": 2
}

Accuracy and scope

Final shaping row may need fewer stitches changed. Does not generate a complete pattern or position left/right decreases.
