You can choose the KnitPro Zing or Symfonie package above. Each contains the listed needle sizes.

Sirdar also specifies stitch holders and a stitch marker. Add them below if you do not already have them.
Before you start
Make a tension sample in the stitch specified in your pattern and adjust the needle or hook size if needed. Use the pattern’s project tension, which may differ from the yarn label.
Check the yarn label for washing and care instructions. Keep your leaflet handy for construction and finishing.

Before you begin
Do I need to buy several colours?
No. Choose one shade of Jewelspun With Wool Chunky. Its colour changes create the stripes as you work.
Can I use my own tools or pattern?
Yes. Select only the items you need. Check that your needle or hook sizes match the pattern. Where a circular needle is listed, the package includes its cable unless you choose to use your own compatible cable.
