Sally’s Favorite Summer Sweater
DK weight yarn – Yarn suggestions include: Tahki Cotton Classic and Elsebeth Lavold Silky Wool.
Needles: Size 5 and 10 ½ (either straight or circular)
(Needle Suggestion – the opaque section of the sweater calls for using both size 5 and size 10 ½ needle. Instead of purchasing two sets of needles, purchase the 5 and 10 ½ tips and one cable from our Knit Pick collection. You can afix one needle of each size at the ends of the cable. Makes knitting these sections very simple.)
