Instructions for making in 3ply, 4ply, and dk weight yarns. Pattern includes instructions for making in gradient yarn and in multicolored yarns.

YARN NEEDED:

1250 meter skein of 3 or 4 ply. I used Crochet UK yarn and I had just enough yarn in the 4ply to complete, however, I am a loose crocheter and tend to use a bit more yarn. The 1250m skein in 3ply is plenty with some left over. I cut out a bit of my last color change so that I’d use more of the last solid color.
