Yarn

Yarn 1: 50g self-striping
Yarn 2: 50g solid or semi-solid yarn, possibly subtly speckled but keep this calm so your self-striping/variegated can strut its stuff
Yarn 3: 20g for hand/beard/nose-type uses
Colour tips and tips for using other weights are in the PreKnitalong PDF available for download when you purchase the pattern.
