One size - quick and easy
Whether
crocheted or knitted: a cozy piece like this is a real soul warmer, plus foot and arm warmers, and winter can come..
And yes, the
crochet pattern looks knitted and is just as cozy and soft.
But knitters will get their money's worth, too. The stitch definition is very similar.
The
PDF pattern is detailed,
illustrated, and 23 pages long, and includes both the
crochet pattern and the
knitting pattern for the soul warmer and the arm/foot warmers.
The
stitches used are explained with pictures.
So general crochet or knitting skills are sufficient.
Basically,
any yarn you like can be used. However, the amount of yarn can vary greatly depending on your yarn choice and needle/hook size. Details are included in the pattern. My yarn usage when using an alpaca yarn, 50 g – 100 m, according to the ball band for needle size 3 – 4, but used here: crochet hook size 8.0
- for the soul warmer, approx. 500 g in the crochet version
(approx. 800 g in the knitted version with needles size 6.0), - for the warmers, approx. 100 g in both versions
