Knitting gauge measuring tool (one inch)

thingiverse

Quick gauge swatch maker. Yes, we all should make a four inch gauge swatch. No, we often don't. This gives you a ballpark when used on a smaller gauge swatch, and is small enough to keep in your knitting bag. The hash marks and numbers down the side really do show up on a typical 3D printer nozzle, but they'll give you an idea...the gauge is 40mm on each outside dimension, and one inch on each inside dimension, so you can go metric or imperial. It took about a half hour to print at a fast print speed. It's 2mm deep -- download it and make it less deep if you want it to print even faster -- it was about 12 minutes at 1mm deep, but that's a bit too flexible for me to feel comfortable just throwing it in my bag.
