Knitting Pattern: Stylish Sizes for All
SIZES:
This versatile knitting pattern is available in three sizes: 1 (2, 3). The finished circumference for these sizes measures 14.5 cm (5.75 inches) for size 1, 18.25 cm (7.25 inches) for size 2, and 21.75 cm (8.5 inches) for size 3. The finished length also varies, measuring 21 cm (8.25 inches) for size 1, 24.5 cm (9.75 inches) for size 2, and 27.25 cm (10.75 inches) for size 3. For a perfect fit, Beate, a model, wears a size 2.
YARN:
For this pattern, we recommend using Hey Mama Wolf Schafwolle #03, a sport-weight yarn that is 100% wool and offers a generous length of 260 metres (284 yards) per 100g. You will need approximately 125 (150, 180) metres (135 (165, 195) yards) for each respective size, as shown in the vibrant colorway "Nothing But Flowers." Please note that the yarn quantities specified are for the version with a joined cuff; you will require slightly less yarn if opting for a single cuff variation.
GAUGE:
Achieve the ideal fit by paying attention to the gauge. To correspond with this pattern, your gauge should measure 22 stitches by 32 rounds, creating a 10 x 10 cm (4 x 4 inches) square when knitted in the round using Stockinette Stitch on a larger needle and after blocking. Proper gauge ensures your finished item matches the intended size.
NOTIONS:
Gather your knitting tools for a smooth crafting experience. You'll need blocking tools (optional), a crochet hook, and some scrap yarn for a provisional cast-on which is also optional. Additional necessities include a darning needle, stitch holder or alternative scrap yarn, and stitch markers to keep your place while you knit.
TECHNIQUES:
This pattern utilizes the Provisional Cast On technique, which is optional but highly recommended for those looking to achieve a seamless look. Embrace this knitting adventure and elevate your skills!
Whether you're a seasoned knitter or a beginner, this pattern offers a delightful project for anyone looking to create stylish, cozy pieces. Enjoy the journey of knitting with our comprehensive pattern guidance!
