- I recommend a worsted weight yarn for this project: you'll need about 350-400 yards. Yarns to try: beWoolen Pigments Worsted, Malabrigo Washted, Cascade Eco Duo, Mitchel Wool Co Worsted weight, Myak Medium, Pascuali Cashmere Charis.
- Yarn for classes at beWoolen must be purchased at the store - just let us know upon checkout in order to receive a 10% discount on your yarn
- You'll need a copy of the pattern purchased & printed prior to the start of class (note: we are not able to sell this pattern through the shop) - follow the link above
- 6.5mm Tunisian crochet hook (or size needed to meet gauge) with a 14" or longer cord & stopper

Homework: Have your pattern printed and your yarn wound up. Plan to purchase supplies & wind yarn prior to the first day of class: especially since the winding line can get pretty long just prior to the start of the first class.
