Easy Picot Gauge!

This morning I started the first round on my doily and there are Reverse work rings and a ton of picots. So I needed a way to measure and make sure that they were all the same size because I'm not that good and winging it yet. I took an old gift card and cut it to different widths (S, M, L, XL), then punched a hole in the top and fastened them all on a paper clip. "Necessity is the mother of invention!"

I like to use those credit cards that they send in the credit card offers (also means that no one can activate them). I like yours.
