The red Valentine uses 2 skeins of Nature spun sports yarn. One skein is knit when we increase the width of the shawl and one when we decrease. Take any 2 skeins of yarn or divide one in 2 parts by the weight, use one to knit the bottom part and one to knit top part, and ta-da. You can adjust the size of this bactus and use any yarn in your stash from lace to sports weight.

Any yarn from sports to lace weight will work for this bactus.

For light fingering or lace from 450 yards
For lace from 700 yards held as 2 yarns (to make warmer item) or from 450 yards to make a lace weight small shawl.
