I think it's 13 or 14 - will check in the morning and post again Debs.

I'm very tempted by some of the Aran  as if I don't have enough aran anyway. But not DB Aran Tweed, I don't have much of that...

Forgot to check Debs - wait a bit ...... you should need 13.36 balls of the stuff Jannette has so 14 balls. Didn't you get some Kilcarra tho?

I managed to avoid the temptation of the DB Tweed Aran and got John to get some aran yarn down from the stash in the loft for me last night. Let's just say I have enough aran to keep me in CPHs for the next twenty years or more 
I'm thinking of a nice CPH in cream aran with browny bits in it for my first attempt, assuming I can achieve tension with it
Why I'm thinking CPH in May I'll never know.
