What do you need:

• yarn (I used Softfun cotton/acrylic yarn by Scheepjeswol)
• a matching crochet hook (I used a 4mm hook)
• a darning needle to sew in the ends
• a pair of scissors

For this blanket, which measures about 1.40 x 1.40m, I used 14 balls of Softfun (two of every colour used, in colour ways 2496, 2531, 2466, 2449, 2451, 2519 and 2514).
