Each skein offers 220 yards (100 g) of exquisite yarn. You will need approximately 7 (8, 8, 9, 10, 10,) (11, 12, 12, 13) skeins, translating to roughly 1450 (1595, 1730, 1865, 2010, 2145,) (2280, 2425, 2560, 2695) yards of aran weight yarn—keep in mind that exact yardage may vary based on your specific knitting style.
Needles:
To achieve the best results, use size 8 (5.0 mm) 29" circular needles and a set of double-pointed needles (dpns). You will also need size 6 (4.0 mm) 16" circular needles and dpns. Adjust the needle size as necessary to ensure you obtain the correct gauge for your knitting project.
Notions:
In addition to your yarn and needles, gather essential tools including markers (m), stitch holders or waste yarn, and a tapestry needle for finishing touches.
Gauge:
For this pattern, you’ll need to achieve a gauge of 25 stitches and 25 rows to measure 4 inches in the Cable Pattern using the larger needles. Additionally, for the Reverse Stockinette stitch, aim for 17 stitches and 25 rows per 4 inches. One repeat of the Chloe Cable Chart (back) measures approximately 4 inches using the larger needles.
