What to knit with Summerspun

Rough amounts for an average adult size. The designer opens with this yarn and its suggested gauge, then calculates the exact yardage for your measurements.

Held double (), it knits like a Bulky yarn: about 15.5 stitches per 10 cm.

To replace Summerspun

Same suggested , within 2 stitches per 10 cm, and similar . Knit a swatch before substituting one yarn for another: drape and look can change.
