Such a great idea, never be caught without a tape measure. Tan or natural color.

06.12.2020 at 11:36I can’t believe I forgot about 24 Days of SWAK (pandemic brain!!!), but here I finally am!
I like the blue wrist ruler, and would ask for one of the larger sizes, to fit my 7.5″ wrist with some ease. I’ve been eyeing those gauges for a long time, so I appreciate your video showing how they work.
I haven’t been up to participating in things, even knitting, much this year. Your creativity this year in preserving our community — and SWAK itself — is beyond amazing. I’m so grateful SWAK is weathering this storm, and for the light and joy you’ve provided during the pandemic. Thank you!!! <3 <3 <3

This is great timing. Since I haven’t been able to attend the Tuesday get together. I have been trying to figure out my gauge. I actually have noticed how much better my project turns out.
Great to listen and learn what I have been doing right and where I can improve.
Thanks again for such timely information.
