Shaping schematic
29 sts in 15 actions over 32 rows
To scale at a gauge of 30 sts × 50 rows per 10 cm
Measure in cm how much the width changes on one side and multiply by your stitch gauge. Multiply the height of the section by your row gauge. A Knitticate pattern works this out from your measurements.
