Looking to create a stunning knitted project? This versatile pattern requires approximately 290 to 450 yards (or 270 to 430 meters) of fingering weight yarn for Color 1 (C1). If you prefer sport weight yarn, you'll need between 500 to 805 yards (or 460 to 740 meters) for Color 2 (C2) and 510 to 825 yards (or 470 to 755 meters) for Color 3 (C3). This range of yarn requirements allows for flexibility depending on the size and style you choose to knit.

Finished Measurements: The finished piece boasts an impressive circumference of approximately 43.25 to 70 inches (or 108.5 to 175 cm) at the full bust. This makes it a perfect choice for those who appreciate an oversized fit. The design deliberately incorporates a generous ease, providing comfort and style.

Note on Sizing: For this design, we recommend aiming for ease that is roughly 12 to 14 inches (30.5 to 35.5 cm) greater than your high bust measurement. If you find yourself between sizes, opt for the smaller size, unless, of course, you prefer a more relaxed, oversized look. This pattern is incredibly forgiving thanks to its design, ensuring that it flatters a variety of body shapes and sizes.

Skills Required: This project is perfect for adventurous intermediate knitters, as it covers essential skills including increasing, chart reading, casting on in the middle of a row, stranded knitting, and working in the round. It's an excellent opportunity to enhance your knitting technique while producing a beautiful final product.

Embrace your creativity and enjoy the process of knitting with this pattern, making it a delightful addition to your wardrobe or an impressive gift for a loved one. With the right yarn and a bit of dedication, you'll create a piece that you'll cherish for years to come!
