The result plans a rectangle only. Ease, shaping, edge stitches, yarn, needle size, shrinkage, stretch, and suitability remain outside this calculation.

Lower, nearest, and upper are positive multiples, not fit recommendations. An exact tie chooses the upper multiple; ≈ marks a non-terminating decimal display.
