Yarn decision

I'm ready to order and getted started on my Citrus Yoke sweater. I think I like the Bazic one (superwash wool) b/c of the color choices. I'm going to order that. What size needles do you think I should use? I'm going to have to buy some of those double-pointed ones too because I don't have those.

I think that wool looks really nice! Try knitting with 10 1/2 needles and see if you can get the recommended gauge. You can wait to buy the double pointed needles till you know which size you need.

Now I have to get yarn too!

How many balls are you getting?

You probably can wear a smaller size than me. I think I would need 14.

I realized you're supposed to knit the swatch in the round so you should probably get the dp needles first. They are useful to have anyway. I like wooden or bamboo because the stitches don't fall off.
