YARN REQUIREMENTS

You can use any yarn and colour combination you like. However, the yarn amount will vary depending on your chosen yarn and hook size.

Using an Aran (weight #4) yarn and a 4.50 mm hook, I used 25 metres of dark and 15 metres of light per squares, with each square measuring, approximately, 5.75” x 5.75” / 15cms x 15cms.

Please make a sample square with the yarn and hook of your choice. If you weigh the yarn before and after making the square you can convert that to metres so you can get a better estimate of the likely yarn amounts you will need and the final size of your project.

YOU WILL ALSO NEED

  • The hook recommended for your yarn. In the sample, I used a 4.50 mm hook instead of the recommended 5.00 mm, as I wanted the texture to be denser. Hook size is personal choice, but will affect the final yarn usage and project size.
  • Scissors
  • Yarn needle
  • Stitch markers
