For the yarn choice, the pattern suggests using **Rendezvous Infinity**, a luxurious fingering weight yarn that comes in a delightful array of colors. You will need the following yardage depending on your size selection (S, M, L):
**Rendezvous Infinity:** 390 (720, 1150) yards / 355 (660, 1050) meters.
For the medium-sized shawl, I personally used **Rendezvous Infinity** (400 yards / 365 meters per 100-gram skein; made of 80% Superwash Merino, 10% Cashmere, and 10% Nylon) in the exquisite **Claudia** colorway, requiring just 2 skeins to achieve stunning results.
**Finished Sizes (after blocking):**
- **Wingspan:** 108 (148, 188) cm / 42.5 (58.3, 74)"
- **Depth:** 46 (64, 82) cm / 18.1 (25.2, 32.3)"
**Needles Needed:** Use a size 4 US / 3.50 mm circular needle with a minimum length of 24" / 60 cm. Be sure to adjust your needle size if necessary to obtain the correct gauge for your project.
**Notions Required:** Gather your supplies, which include a tapestry needle, blocking pins, six stitch markers, and a size 14 US / 0.75 mm steel crochet hook for beading. These accessories will help streamline your knitting experience and enhance the finished shawl's appearance.
