Another Twinkle warning

I got four skeins of Twinkle Handknits Soft Chunky. Colour is not from my usual palette, but I still love it, it’s strangely beautiful pale turquoise with tendency to switch between green and blue main hue depending on current lighting.

Six skeins, said the pattern. I got four. What to do? Try, of course! Shortened the hem by few rounds and sweated like an animal on the last rounds. 27 cm leftover of yarn after sewing.

[…] skeins of the actual stuff, so I have a good reference point. Although the yarn is now in form of Groovy Sweater, I threw away the three inches of leftover yarn… But comparisons are still […]

Hi and thanks for the info. WHich size did you knit, and which color? I am wondering if 5 skeins will be enough for the smallest size. I want to make the full length dress.
Thanks!

Colour is Sea Foam. I have to check out the pattern to say anything to that another question.

Mm-hmm, checked the pattern out. I’m quite sure that you will do fine with your five skeins. I shortened the pattern with just few rounds and I managed with four. My knit is actually none of the sizes mentioned, because of my adjustments…
