MATERIALS

  • 2 skeins of Blue Sky’s Skinny Cotton, 100% organically grown cotton. Each skein is 150 yards/ 65 grams; approximately 75-100 yards per ball. We used the color Birch. (Please Note: Skinny Cotton is no longer available but our Cotton Pure makes an excellent substitution! One skein is sufficient for two to three Balls. Order a second skein to make the full four!)
