For this delightful project, you'll need either circular needles or straight needles, whatever you prefer, in size US 7 (4.5 mm), along with some stitch markers to keep your knitting organized.
The yarn used for this project is fingering weight, specifically crafted from Crème de laine. You'll need 115g of yarn, which consists of 1 skein of the stunning Cerise colorway (55g used) and 1 skein of the delightful Salade de fruits de Moogly (87g used). This combination not only adds a beautiful pop of color but also ensures a soft and comfortable feel against the skin.
For best results, achieving the right gauge is key. This pattern calls for a gauge of 23 stitches and 30 rows per 4 inches (10 cm) in stockinette stitch, using US 7 (4.5 mm) needles, after blocking. Proper gauge ensures that your ''Summer Breeze'' shawl turns out just right, providing the perfect fit and drape.
