Yarn Specifications
For this project, we recommend using The Plucky Knitter Snug yarn, which is a luxurious blend of 70% merino, 20% cashmere, and 10% alpaca. Each skein contains 110 yards (100 g) of yarn. You will need approximately 8 (9, 9, 10, 10, 11,) (11, 12, 13, 13) skeins in the lovely Oatmeal color. This equates to an estimated total yardage of 840 (900, 960, 1020, 1085, 1145,) (1205, 1275, 1335, 1395) yards—please note that exact yardage may vary based on your knitting style and tension.
Needles and Equipment
To create the Graham Sweater, you will need size 10.5 (6.5 mm) needles: a 29" circular needle and a set of 5 double-pointed needles (dpns), as well as size US 9 (5.5 mm) needles in both 29" circular and dpns. Be prepared to adjust your needle size as needed to achieve the correct gauge for a perfect fit.
Additional Notions
Don't forget your essential notions: stitch markers (m) and a tapestry needle for finishing touches.
