Essential knitting tools include a set of US #4/3.5mm 24-inch circular needles. If you prefer, larger sizes may find a 32-inch circular needle more comfortable to work with. Remember to adjust your needle size to achieve the correct gauge for the best fit.
Other materials include a tapestry needle, 6 (7, 8, or 9) 1/2-inch buttons, a sewing needle and thread that matches your buttons, waste yarn or stitch holders for easy management, and removable markers to help keep your place.
GAUGE: Ensure your stitches are consistent by achieving a gauge of 22 stitches and 32 rows for a 4-inch swatch in stockinette stitch.
PATTERN NOTES: This beautiful raglan sweater pattern is designed to be worked from the bottom up, with the main body knitted in a single piece. The sleeves are also crafted from the bottom up and then joined to the main body to create a seamless raglan yoke. The collar adds the finishing touch, with stitches picked up around the neck opening for a polished look.
