This luxurious yarn consists of 100% superfine alpaca, offering a generous 990 yards (905 meters) in each 3.2 oz (90 g) skein. ### Essential Knitting Needles You'll need the following needles for this pattern: - **US size #4 (3.5 mm)** double-pointed needles (DPNs) and a circular needle. Be sure to choose the size needed to achieve the correct gauge. A circular needle should measure at least **24 inches** in length to comfortably accommodate the large number of stitches in the final rounds of the shawl. ### Gauge Information - Achieve a gauge of **20 stitches = 4 inches** in stockinette stitch after blocking for the best results. For utmost accuracy, we recommend knitting a gauge swatch in the round. **Important Note:** At the specified gauge, the **Under the Sea Shawl** will utilize nearly the entire skein, leaving very little leftover yarn. Therefore, it's crucial to achieve the correct gauge, especially when using this gorgeous yarn, to ensure you have enough to complete your shawl. ### Why Knit the Under the Sea Shawl?
