Yarn Choices and Yardage

For this pattern, I've crafted samples using various yarns to demonstrate versatility. Two of my samples are made from 100% wool, showcasing their durability and warmth. The vibrant red pair utilizes DY La Paz, an acrylic yarn blended with a touch of mohair and alpaca for added softness. Whichever yarn you choose, ensure it creates a firm fabric that can withstand wear and tear. The blue sample demonstrates the lovely texture achieved with King Cole's merino blend aran yarn. A list of alternative suitable yarns is provided below to help you pick the perfect match for your project.

Here’s the yardage you’ll need for aran yarn held double:

• 19cm-20.5cm (7½ - 8in): 150yds (135m)
• 21-22cm (8¼ - 8¾ in): 200yds (185m)
• 23-24cm (9 - 9½ in): 225yds (205m)
• 25-25.5cm (9¾ - 10 in): 255yds (235m)

Skills and Techniques

This knitting pattern is designed to be a very easy knit, making it ideal for beginners and experienced knitters alike. You will be knitting in the round using the magic loop technique; however, you can easily substitute this method with two circular needles if you prefer. Please note that double-pointed needles (DPNS) are not recommended for this project to ensure the best results.
