Can you tell me what gauge the yarn suggests that you'll get with size US 15 needles (like how many stitches per inch, or four inches), or even just the brand and type? There's less room for error with such large yarn so I need more details! :)Gretchen Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720728303685051589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-80929399308477993832021-12-29T23:03:27.607-08:002021-12-29T23:03:27.607-08:00I'm hoping to use this pattern for a chunky ca...I'm hoping to use this pattern for a chunky cable yarn I have, 240 g, which calls for size 10 mm or U.S. 15 needles. I'm making the cowl for my 6 year old, but want to make it for the size 7. What needles and cast on would you suggest?Broadway Seniors Resource Councilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15156981868046894705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-52127742703769948652020-12-15T21:35:32.373-08:002020-12-15T21:35:32.373-08:00Wonderful!Wonderful!Gretchen Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720728303685051589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-79899666183319952702020-12-15T21:13:17.742-08:002020-12-15T21:13:17.742-08:00Thank you.

Do I start over again with K 9 or continue as if rows 1 and 2 are one and begin row 2 with purl 9?

And I imagine you're wondering because I recommended a size 7 needle for the middle size - that's just to make it a little teensy bit bigger than it would have been on a size 6, so it's more solidly between the other two sizes, not because you need to use a bigger needle for each one. :)Gretchen Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13720728303685051589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683194221069775925.post-26768121210981855182017-01-14T18:57:06.257-08:002017-01-14T18:57:06.257-08:00For the age 7-12; the pattern reads size 6, 20&quo...For the age 7-12; the pattern reads size 6, 20" needle.
