Fit & Yarn Details

I recommend a chunky yarn that asks for 15mm needles on the label.

Needles: 15mm/US 19 and 10mm/US 15 circular needles both on a 100cm/40" cord. NOTE: The body is knit flat but the sleeves are worked in the round using the magic loop method and circular needles. If you prefer to use DPNs on the sleeves then you will also need DPNs in both needle sizes mentioned above.

Gauge: 6.5 stitches and 9 rows = 10 x 10 cm in stockinette stitch
