If you have a code, you may redeem it here.

This pattern (you get DK and fingering version with code or purchase) is in lieu of a Casapinka LYS Day pattern since many LYS’ weren’t aware (and I wasn’t in time) of LYS Day this year. It is instead a celebration of National Bubble Tea Day, April 30! A list of LYS’ is here.

How it works
When you buy yarn to make Noncho from an LYS on through Saturday, May 1, you will receive an individual code from the LYS (not from me - please don’t email me!) to redeem. It MUST BE REDEEMED by Sunday night 11:59 Pacific Daylight time when it expires.

Note - all sizes are 17” long (See schematic.) If you think you would like it longer, buy more yarn and just continue with the same increases.

Needle size for the DK pattern is: US 6/4.0 mm 16-40”/40-100 cm circular needle or size needed to attain gauge. - The first 100 or so that redeemed their code didn’t have it on there and I’m sorry!

Finished Sizes for DK
1 (2, 3, 4)5, 6, 7 which correspond to:
39.25 (44.5, 50.75, 56.75)62, 66.75, 72.75” / 99.5 (113, 129, 144)157.5, 169.5, 185 cm circumference at full bust. This is designed to be worn with 4-6” of positive ease, so take your bust measurement and add 4-6” to determine the size that you will knit. When in doubt, size up, not down.

Yarn Amounts - the pattern is written for 2 or three colors, some LYS’ are using 2, some three; however, the most you need for a third color is 115 yards.

Color A (top and bottom): 62 (72, 80, 90)100, 105, 115 yds / 57 (66, 74, 83)92, 96, 106 m
