![Two Clueless pullovers seen from a 3/4 angel. The same size but due to the different qualities of yarn (merino to the left, wool/cotton blend to the right) the pullovers fit slightly different. With a bit more drape (like merino) you get a more fitted garment. The sleeves of the one in wool/cotton has a tendency to ride up.](https://images4-g.ravelrycache.com/uploads/Handvarkat/875608924/Untitled_Artwork_5_small2.jpg)

3,5 mm + 3 mm DPN for sleeves (US size 4 + 2,5), alternatively long circular needles for magic loop.

The intended ease is 6-12 cm/2-5 in. But since it’s knitted in rib it works both tighter and looser although if you are between two sizes i would recommend you to choose the size above.
