Size: Small (Large)

Finished Measurements:20 (26)“ / 51 (66)cm from CO to BO edge, 78 (100)” / 198 (254)cm wingspan length. Measurements taken after blocking.

Use the same MC & CC until you reach the final border for a Small 3-skein size.

Large Size

MC - Approximately 430yds / 393m total

CC - Approximately 410yds / 375m total

Border Color - Approximately 600yds / m total using 2 colors striped. Use 1 skein for each color in the Border.

Approximately 350g total required to knit the Large Size. If you are knitting a multi-colored version, I recommend gathering at least 500-600g of yarn so you have many color options to choose.

Shown in: Small Size - Undercover Otter Squirm Sock

MC - Amsterdamned

CC - Plan 9

Border Color - Lobstrocity

Large Size - 10 colors of fingering weight yarns and lace weight mohair/silk

Color A - Silver Gray (La Bien Aimée Alpaca/Silk/Cashmere)

Color B - Green (Qing Fibre Merino Singles Moss)

Color C - Speckled Gold (Qing Fibre Merino Singles Embers)

Color D - Dark Purple

Color E - Dusty Pink (Qing Fibre Merino Singles Dust)

Color F - Turquoise (CaMaRose Yaku 1221 Himmelbla)

Color G - Gold Mohair/Silk (Isager Mohair Silk 63 Oak)

Color H - Navy Blue (CaMaRose Yaku 1710 Somandsbla)

Color I - Light Orange Sherbet

Color J - Light Peach with Speckles (La Bien Aimée Merino Singles Péche Mignon)

Use a full 100g skein for Colors D & J since they require between 70-85g each for the border and other sections. The rest of the colors require less than 40g each so you can use smaller amounts of yarn. I love adding lace weight mohair/silk for 1 or 2 of the colors. Mohair/Silk yarns add extra drape and fuzzy texture to the fabric.

Use these color notes to help with color placement for the 10-color Large Size sample. You can of course use your colors in any order that you like.
