Needles & finishing tools
One pair each of 3.5mm and 4mm straight needles. Both solid and striped versions use the same needle sizes. Stitch holders are required. Add the set only if you need it.
No circular cables are needed.
A tapestry needle, measuring tape and scissors are useful finishing tools; these are not automatically added.
Tension & care
22 stitches × 28 rows to 10cm over stocking stitch using 4mm needles.
Make a tension square and adjust your needle size if needed. Follow the yarn label for care instructions.

Before you begin
Can I use my own tools or pattern?
Yes. Select only what you need. Check needle sizes and any required circular lengths before choosing own tools or cables.
Can I make more than one?
Add one project at a time, then return and change your selection. Include the leaflet once and untick it for later additions. Buy the full yarn quantity for each project.
