Our sample was crafted using the beautiful colorways Hello, Sailor (top) and Sandbank (bottom), perfectly showcasing the enchanting design.
Needles:
To make this stunning colorwork pullover, you'll require a US #5/3.75mm circular needle, measuring 32 inches or longer—larger sizes may find a longer needle more suitable for comfortable knitting.
You'll also need a set of US #5/3.75mm double-pointed needles or your preferred method for knitting small circumferences in the round.
Be sure to select the appropriate needle size to achieve the desired gauge.
Gauge:
The gauge for this pattern is 20 stitches and 28 rows per 4 inches in stockinette stitch, worked flat on larger needles. It's important to check your gauge when knitting in the round, as your needle size may differ from what's used for flat knitting. Adjust your needle size accordingly to ensure a perfect fit and beautiful final result.
