Fingering (14 wpi) ?
8 stitches and 10 rows = 1 inch
US 0 - 2.0 mm
300 - 450 yards (274 - 411 m)
medium and adjustable

This design uses a combination of different yarn weights. Because my working yarn was a heavier weight for my swatch sock, I decreased the stitch number to 60 and for a delicate look, used lace weight yarn for the Color Loops. I also changed my needle size from US 0 (2mm) to US 1.5 (2.5mm) (It would work equally well with lace weight for the Color Loops and light fingering for the working yarn over 64 stitches using needle size 0 as usual.)
