Skills level: Easy
You need to know some basic crocheting: How to make a chain, slip stitch, single crochet (US terms) or double crochet (UK terms).

Yarn:
You need 3 skeins of merino wool to make a bunch of nursing pads in different color combinations. We´ve used Sandnes garn Merinoull in the colors white (1002), grey (1042) and pink (3511).

Needles:
Crochet needle 7 mm (10.75 US) (2 UK)

Gauge:
The gauge is not important in this project, but be sure not to crochet too tight. The pads are going to be quite soft.
