I made this for my newborn niece and have been meaning to publish the pattern ever since and somehow she’s 16 years old now and I finally got around to it!

You could use any yarn with suitable needles that takes your fancy for this. Something plain does make the lace show up nicely. If you want to use baby yarn you might need to add an extra layer or two of blocks.

I used three balls of each colour of 100g acrylic.
