The Princess of Gauge may be male or female, but is certainly a Knitter-In-Training. When you present a knitted gift to this Princess, she is appreciative, and looks at the item carefully, as if for clues.
“Oh,” she will say. “I see how you did this.” Over and over she will flip it, looking at decreases and buttonholes, heel flaps and cables. “How do you do that?” She will ask. What you’ve given her is more than just a hat or a pair of socks; she sees it as a map of the hours, the tricks, the actual steps required to make a ball of string into something useful and meaningful.
“And why did you do it like this?” she will ask. “Could it also have been done like this? How do you know when you’re at the part where you turn it?”
The Princess of Gauge is the person in your life for whom you knit, and whom you are eventually going to teach how to knit. She needs the challenge as much as she needs the socks or jacket. When the Princess of Gauge arises in your Tarot reading, she may just be ready for that first lesson.
