The yarn I ordered for the Central Park Hoodie arrived yesterday. It is a very light worsted; almost more of a dk weight. I was hoping it would be a heavier worsted, but knew that I was taking a chance when I ordered a yarn that I had never seen in person. The CPH pattern calls for a gauge of 17 st/in on a size 8 needle; with this yarn, I got 20 st/in on a size 7 needle. When I checked the stitch count in the pattern, I was pleased to find that if I use the stitch count for the cardigan two sizes larger, then the finished measurements should work out just fine.
