Gauge
14 stitches & 22 rows = 4” in Moss Stitch with Size A needle(s), after blocking
Correct length of the one-piece yoke is dependent upon achieving the stated row gauge.
Needles
Size A (for Main Fabric)
One 32” circular needle and one set of double-pointed needles (DPNs) in size needed to obtain gauge listed
Suggested Size: 6½ mm (US 10½)
Size B (for Ribbing)
One each 32” and 47” circular needles and one set of DPNs three sizes smaller than Size A Suggested Size: 5 mm (US 8)
Size C (optional; for Tubular Cast On only)
One 32” circular needle and one set of DPNs one size smaller than Size B Suggested Size: 4½ mm (US 7)
32” circular needle can be used instead of DPNs if using the Magic Loop method for working small circumferences in the round (e.g. Sleeves).
Note: If you have adjusted the needle size to obtain the correct gauge, it may or may not be necessary to make a matching adjustment to the needle size used for Tubular Cast On due to variance in individual work. You may wish to test your chosen cast-on method on your swatch.
