Aspetuck is recommended to be worn with positive ease of 2 to 10” / 5 to 25 cm.

Swatch in the round is worked flat by having long carries in the back. After Row is finished, instead of turning work to purl, slide work to the right, and carry the yarn in the back, allowing all stitches to be knit for a more accurate swatch.
