Materials Needed: For this project, you will need Garnstudio Drops Cotton Merino (50 g/1.8 oz, 110 m/120 yd, 100% superwash wool) in Turquoise col. 24. The estimated yarn requirements are approximately 82 (96, 110, 128, 150) g for the smallest sizes, up to 175, 200, 242 g for the larger sizes, or roughly 181 (211, 242, 282, 330) m of DK weight yarn. To knit this pullover, you'll need a pair of circular needles in sizes 3.5 mm (US 4) and 4 mm (US 6), each with at least a 40 cm (16”) cable or longer. This will allow for the larger circumference of the body and the smaller circumference of the sleeves, which can also be knit using the magic loop technique or a set of double-pointed needles (dpns).
Additional Tools Required: Among the other materials you'll need for this project are stitch markers to keep track of your stitches, a cable needle for tutorials, a stitch holder or waist yarn for holding stitches, a tapestry needle for weaving in ends, and a sharp pair of scissors for trimming your yarn.
Gauge: It's important to achieve the correct gauge for this pullover. The gauge is 18 stitches and 28 rounds = 10 cm (4”) in Stockinette Stitch. Ensuring you meet this gauge will help you create a beautifully fitting and comfortable garment, so be sure to check your tension before diving into the project!
This top-down pullover is not only a fantastic knitting project but also a practical and cute addition to any child's wardrobe.
