A chart depicting the Doors of Durin (Gates of Moria) from J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings.

I was inspired by Andrea Krüß-Anders’ Doors of Durin - Moria Gate Chart, but needed something for a squarer gauge. I used hers as a guide and widened it.

I made this chart to use with Outi Kater’s Jack’s Jacket, so I used fingering weight yarn (Retrosaria’s Mondim in 307 Heathered Charcoal and 115 Goldenrod) and a 35/34 gauge, but it could probably be used for any square-ish gauge. The yardage is a wild estimate. Mondim comes in 421 yard skeins and I used very little of both to make the full dog jacket.

I put together a partial Elvish font for the jacket so please feel free to reach out if you need any letters for a project.
