Sizing and fit
Follow the measure-as-you-go tips to customize your size and length. No numeric size groups are specified in this listing.
The measure-against-yourself guidance supports experimenting with different yarn weights and hook sizes rather than relying on a fixed gauge. The designer used a large hook with worsted-weight yarn to create a lacy look and found 24/7 Cotton suited the loose stitches.

• 9 mm crochet hook.
• Worsted-weight yarn (weight 4 Aran): 550-1,400 yards. Shop the yarn used for this design (https://shrsl.com/49b4q) (affiliate link).
