YARN
Any worsted weight yarn can be used. I did not measure out the amounts needed, I dove into my stash for these (the blue for the Jay is the largest amount, I’d estimate about 2 ounces or so for that color).

GAUGE
Gauge is not critical for this project, but sts should be tight enough to avoid stuffing showing.
