Materials used:
• 1.75mm hook (or if you crochet tight like me hook size 2mm might be better)
(The gauge/ tension test can be made – my swatch is first 4 rounds made with 3 ply yarn and 2mm crochet hook and it’s 8 cm wide – mandala made this way fits in 70cm metal hoop)
• Around 100g / 500m 3 ply yarn (I used 3 ply 50 % cotton/ 50 % acrylic block gradient cake from Crochet UK), but any 3ply yarn will work. This amount will be enough to crochet mandala onto the hoop or wrap it around hoop if using metal one.
• Ring to attach mandala - I used 70 cm wooden ring, but the ring should be ordered after mandala is finished and measured
• Tapestry needle, scissors, measuring tape, pins, stitch markers.

You can use any similar yarn and suitable hook.

The size of mandala will depend on yarn and hook you use.
