Notes

As soon as I saw this pattern, I fell in love. Making my own combo from stash.

Made as written, just used a bigger needle (4mm) for Icord.
Final weight : 478g

A : Blue green (88g used)
B : Medium pink (85g used)
C : Orange (109g used)
D : Light pink speckled (107g used)
E : Dark brownish purple (90g used)

In pattern A=lightest, E= darkest.
If you want the pattern to pop, choose to put contrasting yarns next to each other (for example A=light, B=bright, C=light, D= bright, E=dark)
