Teddywidder
Teddywidder is an open blanket cardigan knit up in a cozy wool/alpaca blend. It is seamless, with raglan sleeves and a top-down construction.
The pattern includes written instructions and a schematic and all measurements are given in both cm and in.

MATERIALS
• 8 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 skeins Misti Alpaca Tonos Chunky or 860 950, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1400, 1500, 1600 yards or 790 870, 920, 1000, 1100, 1300, 1370, 1470 meters of a comparable super bulky (5-6 wpi) yarn
• US 10.5 – 6.5mm (or size to obtain gauge) circular needle, at least 32”/80cm long. If you prefer knitting the sleeves using dpns (versus magic loop method) you will need a set of dpns in the same size as the circular .
• 8 stitch markers
NOTE on yarn: If you choose to work with an alternative yarn my recommendation is that it not be 100% alpaca. Alpaca grows over time. A yarn that is at least 50% wool will help your garment retain its shape. On the flip side of that, a yarn that is 100% wool might not give you the same drape as shown in the design photos.
