I have to say, that I really do love this pattern, it’s quick and quite versatile. In this, I used 1 strand of medium weight yarn from Red Heart. You could do 2 strands of either the same or different colors.
As you can see, the yarn that I chose was rather colorful for my prototype of this pattern, I also continued with the same yarn to create the picot edging.
I’m not really to big on pom poms, but you can always add one to your project if you prefer them.
