The combination of sts make this a very fun make Bernat Home Dec yarn is the perfect yarn to make the Hayleigh in, it has enough give and stretch to expand when needed but still offers great stability for the bag to keep it’s shape, plus if it gets dirty, just throw it the wash! The pattern as always is very well written with lots of tips to help along the way. I do want to make note to pay special attention to placing st markers and not flipping your base when working it!
