Before you begin
Can I use my own tools or pattern?
Yes. Select only what you need. Check needle diameters and circular lengths before choosing own tools or cables. Own cables removes the cables and any connector from the package, while retaining the needle tips.
Can I make more than one project?
Add one project at a time, then return to choose the next. Include the leaflet once and untick it for later additions. Buy the full yarn quantity for each project.
