It sounds like you are knitting garter stitch. (Knit all stitches on all rows.)

1 “ridge” = a pair of rows. So, count the ridges and multiply by two.
Good luck!

I’m glad you’re using the tips!

Love your site and am very grateful for your knitting tips–I’m using them already! When you are in Asheville, NC, later this month, be sure to check out the Southeastern Animal and Fiber Fair(SAFF–they have a website) the same weekend. You’ll be near and there are many knitters there as well as spinners, weavers, shepherds of all types of fiber animals.

I’ll be removing that scraggly white waste yarn later this weekend, and I’ll show off one attached sleeve. (Notice, I am using my yarn trick to help me count rows between decreases. [...]
