NEEDLES AND NOTIONS

•US 3 (3.25 mm) any length that will accommodate stitches comfortably for flat knitting.

•You may want a second needle for working the provisional cast on. If you prefer, this can also be done using waste yarn. Choose a different color yarn for ease in seeing it later when removing it to place the live stitches on a needle.

•You may want a double point needle of the same size used to knit shawl. You will use this when knitting the lace edging.
