We offer two lengths for sizes ranging from 32 to 49: a Shorter version and a Longer version to suit your personal style and comfort. The Shorter version measures approximately 17.25 (17.5) inches/44 (44.5) cm from the underarm to the bottom rib, while the Longer version measures about 19 inches/48 cm. Please note that for size 29/73, only the single length option is available; however, if you desire extra length, you can easily incorporate additional rounds between motifs.
The yarn requirements for this stunning pullover pattern are as follows: For the main colour (MC), you will need approximately 3 (3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5) skeins. Additionally, be sure to include 1 extra skein of the darkest colour from your gradient set, which will be used for the bottom, cuff, and collar ribbing. This project will require a Gradient Set composed of 6 skeins, each containing 250 yards of yarn.
