Skein specification:
Composition: 100% polyester.
Length: 110 ± 2 meters.
Weight: 300 grams.
Thickness of the strand: approx. 4-5 mm.
Recommended brand: Pimotki.
Alternatively, you can use T-shirt yarn. I recommend choosing a high-quality brand like
Pimotki or Biskvit. A 6 mm crochet hook works best for these brands, but feel free to
experiment. Sometimes adjusting the hook size by 0.5 mm up or down can provide
better results.

  • A lighter;
  • A few stitch markers;
  • A measuring tape;
