Yarn & hook recommendation

🍝 Hook: 6mm & 5mm
🍝 Gauge: 13 stitches x 12 rows = 10 x 10 cm
🍝 Yarn: I use Gepard Woolia (weight/length: 50g = 132 meters), a soft and high-quality wool perfect for the base of the vest. Available from Gepard Garn retailers.

Yarn amount (vest version)

🍝 S: 250g Gepard Woolia (5 balls)
🍝 M: 300g Gepard Woolia (6 balls)
🍝 L: 300g Gepard Woolia (6 balls)
🍝 XL: 350g Gepard Woolia (7 balls)

Scrap yarn or other colourful yarn is needed for the stripes (approx. 40–55g depending on size).

What's included

🍝 Digital PDF instructions with tips, tricks, and detailed pictures.
🍝 Access to 8 pixel graphs to show you how to place your coloured stripes.
