For one solid colour you will need 4 skeins each of Drops Melody and Drops Brushed Alpaca Silk (knitted together, one strand each). If knitting with multi colours, you will need more skeins of Drops Melody (but only 4 skeins of Drops Brushed Alpaca Silk since you will use one strand of white thoughout the whole project).

If using Kidsilk mohair, you will need 12 - 14 X 25gm for 4 strands; 15 - 18 X 25gm for 5 strands (thicker).
