howdy- so i just started working on a sweater pattern i bought awhile (wonderful now that winter is over right? 
)
but i’m realizing that with my tension combined with the yarn i’m using, the ribbing at the bottom of the sweater seems pretty long and stretchy-
anyone have any advice for like a ratio of how long it should be in relation to my waist? (i know it also depends on the fit you want but i just need help so i can continue!)
it’s a front and pack panel btw

without more info to go on… I can only say that if the pattern did not specify gauge, then you’ll just have to do a swatch and do math based off a sweater you already own that is similar
