One size - quick and easy
Whether
crocheted or knitted: a cozy piece like this is popular all year round.
And yes, the
crochet pattern looks knitted and is just as cuddly soft.
But knitters will enjoy it too. The stitch pattern is very similar.
The
PDF pattern is detailed and
illustrated over 23 pages and includes both the
crochet pattern and the
knitting pattern for the soul warmer and the arm/leg warmers.
The
stitches used are explained with pictures.
So general crochet or knitting knowledge is 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 label 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 cuffs approx. 100 g in both versions
