2. Yarn: The showcased shawl requires approximately 3 balls (around 300g, 300m, or 327yds) of Alize Superlana Maxi, a super bulky weight, quality yarn that is budget-friendly (1 ball = 100m ~ 109yds/100g).
3. Needles: Use US 11/8mm needles on a 48”/120cm circular needle for optimal results, and don't forget a crochet hook or tapestry needle for weaving in those pesky ends.
4. Additional Tools: One (Clover locking) stitch marker will help keep track of your progress as you knit your way through this delightful pattern.
Gauge: Achieve a gauge of 10 stitches and 16 rows to equal 4"x4” (10x10cm) for the best fit.
