Basic Inside Out Pasties
This pattern is easy to customize and most yarns can be used.

Yarn: Light fingering to worsted weight
Needles: a set of double pointed needles required for the yarn are
using. If you bind off tightly you may want a needle that is two sizes
larger than the one you are using nearby.

Gauge: Doesn’t really matter.
Terminology: 

ktbl- knit stitch through the back loop. You will be doing this when you come to a yo stitch. This will twist it so that there is no (or little) hole.
