Materials
- US Size 8 (5.0 mm) circular needles (16”)
- DK (#3) weight yarn
- Regular Size = 822 yards (I used 6 balls of Paintbox DK cotton)
- Large Size = 920 yards
- Yarn Needle
- Removable Stitch Markers
Note: I recommend using natural fiber yarn if you can, I think it responds the best to blocking and won’t curl as much on the inside garter cuff edge.
