Additional notes for the designer:
delete this section before submitting your pattern

Knitty patterns use CYC standard sizing. Full details can be found here: http://www.yarnstandards.com/sizing.html

US spellings are our standard. Watch for "ou"s where they don't belong.

Abbreviations that begin a sentence should be capitalized

Use "inches", not inch symbol ["] universally

Use "work" [not "knit"] when describing following a specific pattern for a specific measurement.

For multiple instructions, indicate as follows: 12[13, 14, 15] 
note: no space between first number and square bracket

Do not use fractions – they get lost in transit to our technical editor. Please use decimals or write the fractions in words (i.e. one-quarter or .25)

As of July 1, 2016,  please provide all measurements in imperial (inches) and metric (mm or cm).
