Mixed Tape

My sweater is growing.

I’m doing the decreases on the front neck.

Yardage Requirements

Total yarn (approximate):

180 (200, 220, 240, 260, 280, 300)(320, 340, 360, 380, 400, 420) grams

Per stripe (approximate):

2.75 (3, 3.5, 3.75, 4, 4.5, 5)(5.25, 5.5, 5.75, 6, 6.25, 6.5)grams

Stripes per front/back:

29 (31, 33, 35, 37, 39, 41)(43, 45, 47, 49, 51, 53)

Total stripes (front + back):

58 (62, 66, 70, 74, 78, 82)(86, 90, 94, 98, 102, 106)

I haven’t mentioned this but when they say you need so many grams per stripe that is for the back or front. If you want your stripes to match then you need double the amount of each colour. If it says you need 3 grams per stripe you will need 6 for the front and back to match.

Malabrigo sent an email today and there are new colours of Ultimate Sock minis coming soon. These would make a great addition to your stash for Mixed Tape. The minis are 20 grams.

I have lots of ideas in my head for another Mixed Tape. I have a large stash of part balls of Spincycle Dyed in the Wool. We’ll see how this sweater turns out and then I could be casting on another.
