To create the Braided Embers Sweater, you will need the following knitting needles: 8 mm for the body and sleeves, 6 mm for the collar ribbing, and 6.5 mm for the bottom and cuff ribbing. ***We recommend using a set of interchangeable needles, as you will require a 16” cord for the neck and beginning of the raglan, along with one or two longer cords that match your bust size for comfort and ease during knitting.***
For the yarn, select any bulky weight yarn that matches the gauge to ensure your sweater turns out beautifully.
