Needles and Notions

The gauges were achieved with the following needle size. To work the pattern as written, you must swatch and use a needle size that will result in the correct gauge after blocking.

2.75mm (US 2) circular needles of varying lengths.

Note: if doing the sleeves in the round you will need a gauge-size preferred needle for small circumferences.

You will also need:
tapestry or darning needle for seaming and weaving in ends; stitch markers, removable markers.
