**Materials Needed for Your Knitting Project** To create your beautiful knitted design, you will need the following materials: - **4 Double-Pointed Needles:** Choose a size suitable for the weight of the yarn you are using. For optimal stitch definition and to produce a firm fabric, it's recommended to go with needles that are one or two sizes smaller than what the yarn label suggests. For this project, I used needles in size 2 (3.0mm) and size 4 (3.5mm). - **Yarn Options:** - **Fine Cotton Boucle by Robin J. Edmundson:** This lace-weight yarn is 99% cotton and 1% nylon, providing a lovely texture and drape. You'll need approximately 274 meters / 49 grams, using two strands for added durability. - **Bouclé Mohair by Be Sweet:** If you prefer a soft and fluffy finish, this bulky yarn is 100% mohair and comes in 91 meters / 50 grams. - **James C. Brett Twinkle DK:** This yarn, made from 97% acrylic and 3% polyester, is perfect for beginners. It is DK weight (light worsted) with a length of 300 meters / 100 grams and is available in a beautiful white color (02). - **Stylecraft Special Acrylic Yarns:** For versatile and vibrant embellishments, you will need 100% acrylic yarn in two colors – one for the bunny and one for the heart, both providing 304 meters / 100 grams each. - **Additional Supplies:** - **Yarn Needle:** For weaving in ends and sewing pieces together. - **Toy Stuffing:** To give your project a lovely plush finish. - **Yarn for Tree Decor:** Aim for more than 1 meter long to create stunning decorations. - **Stitch Holder:** To keep your stitches secure when not in use. - **Felt Decorations:** These will add a fun and festive touch to your tree. - **Satin Ribbon and Lace:** Cut into 30 cm segments for additional decoration. - **Buttons:** A large button in the shape of a house and smaller buttons for your bunny will complete the look. With these materials, you'll be well on your way to crafting a delightful knitted project perfect for the holiday season or as a thoughtful gift. Happy knitting!
