Yarn: Aran (A) Pink Variegated, (B) Blue Variegated, three 100g balls of each
Needles: 5.5mm, (5.5mm double-pointed or long needles optional)
Crochet hook (for fringe)
Tapestry needle

Special abbreviation

Top knit tip

To prevent holes, if loops at corners are very loose, take loop onto lh needle and k into back of loop. For this yarn, it is better to cast on fairly tightly.
