For this cozy sweater, you will need DK weight yarn. We recommend using the exquisite Duo yarn from Sandnes Garn in the delightful 4032 colorway. You'll need approximately 980 m (1075 yds) for the smallest size, and up to 1700 m (1860 yds) for the largest, making it a versatile project for knitters of all levels.

To get started, prepare the right tools: use 3.5 mm (US 4) needles for the body and 3 mm (US 2.5) needles for the ribbing. Don't forget to gather essential notions like stitch markers, a tapestry needle, and some waste yarn to assist in your crafting process.

Your gauge should measure 19 stitches and 30 rows to 10 cm (4 inches) in the pattern when using 3.5 mm needles (US 4), after blocking. Achieving the correct gauge is crucial for ensuring your sweater fits as intended, giving it that polished, professional look.
