Need to borrow someone's math brain.
I've had a whole cup of chocolate-milk-and-Bailey's, which has killed what little math brain I have, apparently. Normally I can do basic algebra but this just isn't computing.
So I'm trying to make scarves based on this and this. So the images come out looking like this:
Now, I can see that the dimensions in pixels are height=25 and width=172.
1. When I'm double-crocheting one strand, I get 4st=1in long, and 2st=1in tall.
2. When I'm double-crocheting two strands, 5st=2in long, and 5st=4in tall.
In each case I'm trying to make the scarf to scale. How many stitches across would I need to do to make a scarf to scale? If I'm making no sense or if you need more information, just say so. If you're not a math person, just disregard this barely-even-tipsy-just-more-math-stupid post.
Thanks. <3
Edit: I'm going lengthwise (aka I'd be going 25 st at a time for 172 rows if I were single-crocheting, which I suppose I could do to avoid the math headache but single crochet takes forfuckingEVER and double crochet is more fun)...okay, going to bed now.
