This pattern uses Crochet no. 5 thread and a 2.2.5 mm crochet hook. It consists of 50 g balls: 2 balls grey, 6 balls silver and 2 balls paprika. There is no tension swatch and only one size available: length = 60 cm and chest = 84 cm. The easiest way to enlarge the pattern is to use a thicker yarn like 4 ply or DK. The pattern includes an assemble diagram as well as a crochet diagram for the motif. Advanced crochet skills are recommended.
