Suggested Needles

Needle sizes listed are suggestions. Use sizes necessary to achieve specified gauge.

• Needle A - US 8 / 5 mm, 16” & 32” / 40 & 80 cm (or longer) circular needles or size needed for Stockinette Stitch gauge; DPNs or circular needle in preferred length for working Magic Loop method for small circumference (Body and Sleeves)

• Needle B - US 9 / 5.5 mm or one to two sizes larger than Needle A (as needed to achieve Stranded Colorwork gauge), 16” & 32” / 40 & 80 cm (or longer) circular needles; DPNs or circular needle in preferred length for working Magic Loop method for small circumference

• Needle C - US 7 / 4.5 mm, 32” / 80 cm (or longer) circular needle or one size smaller than Needle A (twisted rib at Hem)

• Needle D - US 10.5 / 6.5 mm or two to three sizes larger than Needle A (as needed to achieve Herringbone Stitch gauge), DPNs or circular needle in preferred length for working Magic Loop method for small circumference (Sleeve Cuff)

Note! I suggest interchangeable needles for Herringbone Stitch, to enable you to use a smaller size left-hand needle, which will not affect the gauge but will make the Herringbone Stitch easier to work.

• Needle E - US 6 / 4 mm or two sizes smaller than Needle A, 16”/ 40 cm circular needle (Collar); DPNs or circular needle in preferred length for working Magic Loop method for small circumference

(Alternate Cuff Option in 1x1 Twisted Rib)

Gauge Information

Stockinette Stitch: 18 sts / 25 rnds per 4” / 10 cm worked on Needle A in the rnd, measured post-blocking

Stranded Colorwork: 18 sts / 22 rnds per 4” / 10 cm worked on Needle B in the rnd, measured post-blocking

Note! To ensure proper fit, it is essential to gauge swatch and to block your swatch in the same manner as you will the finished garment. It is not uncommon to knit Stranded Colorwork tighter than Stockinette Stitch. Be sure to swatch for the colorwork and adjust the needle size as necessary for gauge.

Herringbone Stitch: 24 sts / 20 rnds per 4” / 10 cm worked on Needle D in the rnd, measured post-blocking

1x1 Twisted Rib: 20 sts / 26 rnds per

4” / 10 cm worked on Needle E in the rnd, measured post-blocking (collar)
