Pattern builders require your 4 in (10cm) gauge, not a 1-inch gauge.
We’ve added an extra check to help catch gauge entries that look like a 1-inch gauge before the pattern is calculated. If you normally record your gauge over 1 inch, multiply both your stitch and row counts by 4 before entering them.
