YARN AMOUNTS

This is a flexible pattern that can be made using any yarn. Because of this, please make a tension square using a For a 3 x 10-stitch by 1 x 30-row repeat so you can establish the likely final size and amount of yarn needed.

However, for my own swatch/sample using Stylecraft Special DK and a 4.00 mm hook, I used:

  • (A) Used at the top and bottom of the swatch: 27 m
  • (B)/(C) The additional two colours: 14 m for each
  • (D) Used as the outline/highlight between zig zags: 12 m
