Note: Correct length of the one-piece yoke is dependent upon achieving the stated round gauge.

Suggested Needles

One each 16”, 24” and 32” circular needles and one set of double-pointed needles (DPNs)* in size needed to obtain gauge listed

Size B (for Charted Colorwork)
One 32” circular needle and one set of DPNs, one size larger than Size A

Due to significant variance between knitters, your colorwork fabric should be swatched prior to knitting your sweater to determine whether or not Size B should be larger, smaller or equal to Size A. Please read about Speed Swatching for Circular Knitting (see Special Techniques).
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).
