Needles: 3.75 mm / US 5 in length required for working body in the round AND DPNs or circular needle for working neck in the round
4 mm / US 6 in length required for working body in the round
Always use a needle size that will result in the correct gauge after blocking.

Notions: 8 stitch markers, DPNs in same size as larger working needle for holding pocket sts, stitch holders or scrap yarn

Notes: Ceilidh is knit in the round from the bottom up, with short rows to shape the back hem. Pocket linings are worked and joined, then the sweater divides for back and fronts to be worked separately before joining at the shoulder. Sleeves are picked up and worked down flat. Neckband is picked up and knit.
