What you´ll need:
-though this is a made-to-measure pattern, I recommend that you not go above DK /Light/weight 3 (not above, DK itself is fine)
I wear XS/S and used ~60g for Sleeveless version and ~115g for version w/ Sleeves, of Drops Loves You 7, 100% Cotton, 5ply / sport, 50g=approx 170 m
- recommended hook size (preferable if you´re using DK) or 0.5mm bigger
-Measuring tape, St Markers, Darning needle, Scissors

As with any pattern, you can always adjust and customize it to your own preference. Refer to the Lookbook for wonderful examples from my testers, such as:
-adjusting it to your desired fit (positive ease instead on zero ease),
-cropped versions,
-flared sleeves,
-no waist shaping, etc
