Frequently asked questions
How much ease does the adult slipover have?
Approximately 10–15 cm. For example, the 102 cm size S gives 12 cm of room on a 90 cm bust.
Are the main yarn and mohair metres added into one purchase?
No. Use one strand of Tynn Peer Gynt with one strand of Tynn Silk Mohair. Each column is the amount to buy of that separate yarn.
