Yarns used in this book
Red Heart Boutique Sashay used only with a weaving technique, not really knitted.
Red Heart Super Saver at 4 stitches/6 rows/inch. 6.5 on the KX 350 stitch dial.
Mary Maxim Big Ball at 5 stitches/7 rows per inch using 5-8 on the stitch dial.
Eastport Alpaca DK at various gauges depending on project specifics. It is available at www.suripacobodega.com as well as some other sources. Other DK-sport yarns may be substituted.
Yarn Country Flash at 5 stitches/inch knitted rather loosely
4/2 Cotton from Stephanie’s Studio at 6 stitches/9 rows/inch
Patons Astra at 5 stitches/inch

Substituting yarns is completely fine. Just keep in mind the qualities for which the yarn was selected. For example, the sock yarn was selected for softness and wash-ability. The use of Eastport Alpaca is for it’s soft, warm lofty qualities. A cotton sweater that matches the gauge may be knitted and might be nice but it will certainly look and behave differently. Though the Eastport Alpaca is listed as DK size it knits and behaves more like a sport weight or #3 yarn. This is because it lofts so much when washed. If unable to match the gauge perfectly, match stitch gauge and adjust for row gauge. Usually that makes for very simple arithmetic using the formula on page 15. If you run into substitution or gauge matching questions, I am always happy to help. Just contact me via my website contact info with enough detail about your established gauge and where you are in which project for me to catch up with you mentally and jump in.
