Needle notes and needs

• 1 pair of 5½mm (UK5 – USA9) Knitting Needles for the main knitting (or the size required to give the correct tension).
• 1 Pair of 3¼mm (UK10 – USA3) Knitting Needles for the welts, neck and cuff edgings (or a needle 4 sizes smaller than you use for the main knitting).
• Gauge: Using 3¼mm needles cast on 22 stitches and work 42 rows in garter stitch (knit every row). This should now measure 10cm, (4in) square.
• As long as you knit garter stitch at the above tension, the lace pattern should measure 18 stitches to 11cm, (4¼in) and 18 rows to 8.5cm (3¼in) on 5½mm needles.
• 1 stitch holder
