I think there's some confusion (at least in my head) where it gives needle size and yarn weight. It says Knitting Needle Size Circular Knitting Needles Yarn Weight(7) Jumbo It doesn't give the needle size and the yarn weight of 7 doesn't make sense to me. It doesn't seem that a size 7 needle would give the result pictured. I can't figure it out.

Hi there! The knitting needle size is listed just a bit below that, 25mm or US 50. The needles are gigantic!

This looks super cozy (and easy!). If I had to knit an afghan, it would definitely be this one!

If you don't have 'jumbo weight yarn' can you use (3) strands of regular yarn for this pattern - Cool Comforts Knit Throw

Hi there! The best way to tell if holding three strands together will work is by trying out the swatch and seeing if the gauge matches. Yarn Sub is also a great resource for finding alternative options! http://yarnsub.com/yarns/red_heart/boutique_irresistible I hope that helps! -Dana, Editor of FaveCrafts
