For this pattern, gather materials including 450 (485, 550, 600) yards of bulky weight yarn. We used Wool and the Gang's Crazy Sexy Wool for our sample, but feel free to choose any high-quality yarn that matches the same gauge to achieve similar results.
You'll need to work with a US#19 (15mm) needle, a cable needle (CN), and some stitch markers to keep track of your work. Ensuring you achieve the correct gauge is vital; aim for 6 stitches per 4 inches or 1.5 stitches per inch while using a 15 mm needle. This pattern combines comfort, style, and ease of wear, making it a must-have for any knitting enthusiast.
