Yarn bought from The House of Hemp, at the 2003 Knitting and Stitching Show. Each skein is 100g and cost £7. It is 2-ply and quite thin. I will probably use needles somewhere around 3mm.
I am planning to knit this sideways in stocking stitch so I can have nice wide vertical stripes. I will have to do a bit of maths to make sure that the colour joins work smoothly:
- on each shoulder seam
- at the side seam where I start and finish knitting
- where I join the sleeves to the body (this is the least important one)
A V-neck would be nice but possibly impractical for sideways knitting.
