How much yarn do you need?
I used for my sample Wander Acrylic Yarn by Furls Crochet. Each skein has 100 grams and approximately 109 meters / 120 yds. I used 5 colors: Laguna, Campfire, Moonbeam, Aurora, Velvet
For each size, you will approximately need:
Laguna (blue): 98 meters (102, 106, 112) (118, 125, 136, 142, 153)
Aurora (Pink): 94 meters (98, 102, 107) (113, 119, 129, 137, 145)
Campfire (orange): 94 meters (98, 102, 107) (113, 119, 129, 137, 145)
Moonbeam (Grey): 84 meters (88, 91, 96) (102, 107, 116, 123, 131)
Velvet (Burgundy): 32 meters (33, 35, 36) (39, 41, 44, 46, 50)
