To use this Hansel Hap kit, first, head to the designer's Ravelry page to get the pattern. Choose the size that suits you best - small, medium, or large. You'll need to get US size 8 (5 mm) 24', 32', or 40' circular needles and a spare DPN for edging, as they're not included in the kit. Stitch markers and a tapestry needle will make your knitting easier. From July 15 to August 30, you can join the KAL event and follow the pattern step - by - step. Experiment with different techniques and play around with the three colorways provided. When it comes to maintenance, since it's made with Jamieson's Spindrift yarn, it's best to hand - wash it in cool water and lay it flat to dry. This will help keep your Hansel Hap looking great for a long time. Remember, a 'Hansel' is a special gift, so take your time and enjoy the knitting process.
