How to Sell at Bazaars This is the season for bazaars, markets, and garage sales. You can sell your handmade items at any of these events. Understanding Gauge or Tension in Knitting and Crochet Knitting and crochet patterns include instructions for checking tension before proceeding. The tension will determine the final fit and look of the items you knit or crochet. If you check your tension before you begin, you can be sure that when you are finished, you will have the measurements you want.
