YARN
Lush by Classic Elite Yarns

2 hanks 4441 Real Red

If you can’t find Lush, there are some alternatives. Vista and Crestone, both interchangeable themselves, would work well, as would Portland Tweed. If you would like to play with the size or gauge, look for Woodland (a little lighter) or Montera (a little heavier) to make those changes. But please remember the cardinal rule of knitting, always knit and measure out a gauge swatch! It’s the only path towards knits that fit.

NEEDLES
Set of 4 double pointed needles (dpns) in size US 6 (4 mm) or size to obtain gauge.

OTHER MATERIALS
Cable needle (cn)
Stitch markers
Waste yarn

GAUGE
