Adjust needle sizes to obtain correct gauge if necessary! I admit, I hate (and I mean HATE it) to knit gauge swatches, but it is so important to check your gauge. Even if you use the same yarn and needle size. We all knit differently, so please make sure to invest some time to find the right needle size for your project. You will end up with a result that has the correct size and that makes you happy 
