This varies with the yarn, the hook size and the tension. You have to make a sample, count and measure.

How many single crochet stitches with a 5.5ml hook in a size 7.5 hat?

It depends on the size of yarn you're using (thicker less stitches and thin more stitches) and what your crochet tension is (gauge). Usually a pattern will indicate how many stiches should be in an inch. If not, single crochet an inch or two with the hook and yarn you intend to use and then measure an inch and count how many stiches are in that inch. If your pattern does not have a gauge for a size 7.5 hat, I'd use your 1 inch crocheted gauge square to measure around and up a size 7.5 hat you already know fits and use multiplication from those results to determine stiches per row and how many rows. If you're talking size


In a crochet pattern what is the gauge?

Gauge in any pattern is a sample you make to verify that your tension, hook, stitches, match up to the ones used in the pattern. If it doesn't match, then you make adjustments to have your gauge match that given in the pattern.Gauge is given generally as so many stitches in an inch, or so many rows in an inch. Generally, you crochet (or knit) a sample longer and higher than 4 inches, so that you can measure in the middle of the swatch and calculate your average stitch or row per inch.


How many stitches for knitting needle number 8 per inch?

The number of stitches you need per inch depends on the type of fabric you are sewing. The weight, thickness and type of fabric sewn will determine the stitch length you use. In a quilt, you will have fewer stitches, such a six or eight per inch. For a seam on clothing, a medium weight fabric will use 10 - 12 stitches, for heavier fabrics, 8 -10 will work better. In knitting and crochet, the stitches per inch are determined by the size of your needles, the tension you use when working the stitches, and the weight of the yarn or thread. The pattern you use will specify the stitches and needles you need, called the gauge.


What is the stitch count?

This means how many stitches per inch. For example, in sewing on a machine the usual # of stitches per inch is 8 - 10 for normal sewing, 6 stitches for basting. On crocheting and knitting an actual pattern will tell you how many stitches per inch is used.


How many stitches do you need to make a thick scarf from 4 inch needles?

Crochet or Knit? It depends on your tension and the size yarn you are using. Take the yarn you are planning on using and using the stitch suggested in the pattern, stitch out until you have about about a one inch wide row. Count the number of stitches you've made and multiply that by the length you would like the scarf to be. NOW, measure the height of your test inch. Divide the with of the scarf you would like to make by the height of your test row. This will tell you how many rows you need. Now, Multiply the number of rows needed by the number of stitches in each row. I sure hope that helps! It's kind of hard to explain unless I know for sure whether you're crocheting or knitting. THIS method is what I would use for crochet.

Double knitting yarn what does it mean in crochetting?

Double knitting refers to the "weight" of the yarn--how 'thick' is the yarn. DK or double knit is a a light worsted weight yarn. DK typically makes 5-6 stockinette stitches per inch when knitting. For crochet, you would generally us an "I-sized" hook (4.5 to 5.5mm). Also, you would get approximately 3-4 single crochets to the inch, in gauge. Of course, adjusting your gauge to fit the pattern requirements--generally by changing the size of your hook, either larger or smaller.
