Good to know

1 x var — your questions, answered

Which size should I knit?
Five sizes — S, M, L, XL and XXL — with a chest of 92 to 115 cm, 60 to 66 cm from hem to underarm and sleeves of 44 to 48 cm.
Will I have yarn left over?
The kit holds the amount for XXL: 6 plates of white and one each of oatmeal and black heather. S and M use 4 plates of white, L and XL use 5.
What does “2-ply Plötulopi” mean?
Two strands of Plötulopi held together. The pattern says to wind two strands softly together before you start; the plate amounts already count both strands.
Which zip do I need?
A two-way separating zip. The pattern gives no length — this version is long, so measure the finished front before you buy it. You also need a sewing machine for the steek and thread to match. None of these is included.
The pattern says “beige” — which plate is that?
1030, called Oatmeal Heather in our shop.
What does the kit with needles include?
5.5 mm (US 9) and 4.5 mm (US 7) circular needles in 40 and 80 cm; 4.5 mm and 5.5 mm double-pointed needles — ADDI, as named in the pattern. The zip is not included.
