How many yards to do you need? What yarn are you substituting?

I don’t think there is anything cheaper than Swish. What size do you need to make? The 60" would be $115 appx so if you need smaller then it would be a lot less.
yeah i need to make the 60" as I am twice the women I was 8 years ago.
thanks for your response
Elann’s Superwash at 120 yards per skein is $2.38. For the largest size of the CPH, you’d need just over 15 skeins, so say 16 to be safe. That’s $38 plus shipping.
Their bamboo superwash is $2.48 and would need 17 balls for about $42, and their luxury superwash merino would need 15 skeins and come in around $60.
Just be careful if you use bamboo. It has a very strong drape factor and can look droopy. If you decided to use that yarn use a smaller needle size and adjust accordingly.
what is the CPH?
CPH = Central Park Hoodie
