When you choose your size choose one that gives you an extra 3-4cm width over your usual size. Or if you wish, choose one where the two are the same.

Wool requirements for sweater with short body and arms in number of 50-gram skeins :
Size 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Colour 1: King blue 2 2 3* 3* 3 3 3 4* 4
Colour 2: Offwhite 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3* 3

Wool requirements for sweater with long body and arms in number of 50-gram skeins:
Size 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Colour 1: King blue 3 3 3 4* 4 4 5* 5 5
Colour 2: Offwhite 2 2 3* 3* 3 3 3 4* 4

A number with an asterisk indicates that the quantities are borderline between 2 skeins. In this case I round up. For example, for size 3 in version short-short it shows 3 for the required skeins in King blue. This means that most of you will require a few grams from a third skein but others will only require 2. I point this out so that you can determine how many skeins you order as some may take the decision to order 2 skeins first and eventually a third later, whilst others will order 3 at the outset.

Tension on no 4 mm (US 6) needles: When you knit stocking stitch with double thread and work is lying flat without stretching – tension is 24 stitches for 10 cm in width and 28 rows in height for 10 cm high.
