NEEDLES

Size A (for Main Fabric):

• One each 16″, 24″, and 32” circular needles and one set of double-pointed needles (DPNs)* in size needed to obtain gauge listed
• Suggested Size: 4½ mm (US 7)

Size B (for Ribbing):

• One each 16” and 32” circular needles and one set of DPNs*, two sizes smaller than Size A
• Suggested Size: 3¾ mm (US 5)

Size C (optional; for stranded colorwork pattern from Yoke Chart):

• One each 16” and 32” circular needles one size larger than Size A
• Suggested Size: 5 mm (US 8)

Due to significant variance between knitters, your colorwork fabric should be swatched prior to knitting your sweater to determine whether or not this needle size should be larger, smaller or equal to Size A

*32″ circular needle can be used instead of DPNs if using the Magic Loop method for working small circumferences in the round (i.e. Sleeves)

Please note: the stitch patterns in this garment are charted only.
