You can make this shawl with any yarn you like, we mostly used cotton.

Size up your needle by 2, so for example if you use a yarn and the label says it is for needle 3, use needle 5 for the project.

We mainly use 6 different colors, you can use more or less if you want to.

It depends on the type of yarn how much you need for a shawl, keep in mind that you need more yarn for the color of the base and a little more for the color you use as a border.
