For legal reasons, we’ve been asked to change the name of this pattern from Skydottir to Sundottir. We apologize for any confusion, and appreciate your understanding in this matter!

One each 16”, 24”, and 32” circular needles and one set of double-pointed needles (DPNs) in size needed to obtain gauge listed

Size C (optional; for stranded colorwork pattern from Yoke Chart):

Due to significant variance between knitters, your colorwork fabric should be swatched prior to knitting your sweater to determine whether or not this needle size should be larger, smaller or equal to Size A

32” circular needle can be used instead of DPNs if using the Magic Loop method for working small circumferences in the round (i.e. Sleeves)
