Knitting tension on baby hopi
10 cm solid color stocking stitch Pinne 3 mm = 28 stitches
10 cm pattern knit Pinne 3.5 mm = 28 stitches

Most people knit tighter on patterns than they do when they knit plain stockinette. I have therefore included in the pattern that you should go up half a needle size when you knit the pattern. Knitting strength varies from person to person and always knit a test piece before you start.

Yarn
Below I have made an overview of which yarns you can use to knit Baby-Hopi. If you have a small baby, I would recommend that you go for a merino yarn, but if you have a baby who has started to explore outside, you can advantageously choose a yarn that can withstand a little more beating, such as Lamull from Rauma or Tynn Peer Gynt (you can knit the neck in merino wool so it doesn't itch). If you are going to knit Hopi baby for summer use, you can advantageously choose a cotton yarn.
