NEEDLES
5 mm / US 8 circular needle with a length of at least 80 cm (100 cm) / 32” (40”) (or needle size to obtain gauge, main needle)
4 mm / US 6 circular needle with a cable length of at least 80 cm (100 cm) / 32” (40”) (or 2 sizes smaller than main needle for ribbing)

GAUGE
18 sts x 37 rows = 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4” (in the round and worked flat, in Half Brioche, on larger needles, after blocking)
16 sts x 31 rows = 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4” (in the round and worked flat, in 1x1 ribbing, on smaller needles, after blocking)

It is important to carefully knit a large enough swatch, wash it and allow it to dry completely before determining the gauge. Due to the loose knitted fabric, the finished sweater tends to stretch in length after washing.
