Materials
♡ Approx. MC: 1060 (1200, 1350, 1500, 1650, 1800, 1960) yards/970 (1100, 1235, 1370, 1510, 1645, 1795) meters; CC1: 80 (100, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200) yards/75 (90, 110, 130, 145, 165, 185) meters; CC2: 25-50 yards/20-45 meters of DK or light worsted weight yarn.

About yarn choice: the pullover is designed for DK weight yarns. For a best result, I suggest a warm wool or wool blend yarn. For my sample I used an inelastic Alpaca blend yarn (191 yards/175 meters per 50 gr) in neutral shades of grey and beige.
