Yarn: For this delightful knitting project, you will need Barrett Wool Co. Woolens in sport weight, which features a generous 180 yards per 50-gram skein. Grab 1 skein each of the stunning colors “Inkwell” (Main Color, MC) and “Putty” (Contrasting Color, CC). If you prefer a pom pom in the MC, be sure to have an additional skein of “Inkwell” on hand.

Needles: To craft this project seamlessly, use US size 3 (16-inch circular) needles and US size 5 (16-inch circular) needles, along with double-pointed needles (dpns) if you prefer or as needed to achieve the correct gauge. Choosing the right needle size is crucial for maintaining both the structure and appearance of your finished piece.

Notions: Don’t forget the essential accessories! You will require a stitch marker, a blunt needle for weaving in ends with finesse, and a pom pom maker for that perfect finishing touch. These notions not only facilitate the knitting process but also enhance your overall crafting experience.

Gauge: Achieving the correct gauge is vital for ensuring your finished project fits beautifully. The gauge for this pattern is 23 stitches and 28 rounds = 4 inches in the charted pattern using the larger needles. Be sure to check your gauge before starting, as this will help you achieve the best results with your knitting.
