FAQs

Where can I buy the yarn?

Fjord DK yarn can be purchased from most yarn stores and online retailers.

What if I don't have the recommended needle sizes?

Using the wrong size needles will effect the size of your project. It is best to stick to the pattern's recommendations for needle size.

Is this pattern suitable for beginners?

While the pattern is for multiple garments, beginners might find some parts challenging. Consider starting with the scarf or hat first.

Can I use a different type of yarn?

You can try, but you will need to adjust the needle size and check the gauge to ensure the project turns out the desired size.

What if I run out of yarn?

Estimate your yarn usage and purchase additional yarn to finish your project.

What does DK stand for?

DK stands for Double Knitting, which is a weight of yarn.
