Thank you for this free pattern. However, we do not have this yarn available in this country and I cannot find anywhere the approximate balls of yarn required. As I do not know the yarn or how it works I feel I am guessing ‘how long is a length of string’. We can take some purchased and put aside some balls at the store and purchase as needed but I have no idea what to guesstimate. I realise the sizes and people’s tension differ but Could you help in any way?
Thanks again.

Thank you, Lesley! All that info is in the written pattern: https://www.mooglyblog.com/paloma-cardigan/ and the yarn is linked as well.

The gauge in the written pattern says "in blo exhdc" but the video works exhdc in the front loop only. Does either one work?

Hi Tamara!
This is a gorgeous sweater! Thank you for the free pattern and tutorials. When people come to me with crochet questions I always tell them to check out your site for clear how to instructions.
I'd like to make the Paloma Sweater hip length with slits at the hips. Can you tell me how many rows to make the waist portion?
Thank you!
Ana
