This pattern will work well with many super bulky weight yarns. I loved using Lion Brand Hometown super bulky yarn in ‘Dallas Grey’. This yarn is very soft and has an attractive subtle sheen that gives a modern vibe. The pattern would also work well with Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick and Lion Brand Re-Spun Thick & Quick.
Be sure to buy additional yarn if you plan to add length to your blanket.
