Yoke Increase Calculator
Plan your circular yoke increases from neck cast-on to underarm. Not locked to raglan seam lines.
How to Use
- Neck cast-on: The number of stitches you cast on at the neck edge (top-down) or bind off at the neck (bottom-up).
- Target body stitches: The total round count at the underarm separation point.
- Yoke depth: Measured from neck to underarm in inches.
- Row gauge: How many rows or rounds per inch from your gauge swatch.
- Choose sections and increase type, then click Calculate Yoke Schedule.
About Circular Yoke Increases
- Unlike raglan, circular yoke increases are not tied to specific seam lines — they can happen anywhere in the round.
- Increases are typically spread evenly around the round (e.g., every 5th stitch for a round of 20 increases).
- Using 3 sections creates a natural curve: dense increases early, then tapering off.
- Space increases further apart for a more drapey yoke; closer together for a structured fit.
