The provided meterages/ yardages (yds approx. due to rounding) already include a safety margin. However, please note that your individual yarn consumption may vary based on your yarn, gauge, size, and the desired sleeve/body length. It is advisable to get a little more than you think you’ll need.

Yarn substitutes
Any aran to worsted weight yarn that meets the gauge, unspun yarn held double or a combination of DK + lace weight yarn. For best results, use lightweight, lofty yarns rather than heavy, dense ones, as the latter may affect both fit and feel.

Needles
3.5 mm (US 4), 4.0 mm (US 6) and 4.5 mm (US 7) 60-120 cm/ 24-47 in circular needles and/or DPNs.

Notions
Stitch markers, locking stitch markers, stitch holders, tapestry needle, measuring tape, scissors, and yarn for sewing.
