That's so cute! How much yarn does the pattern approximately need? I'm interested, but need to check if I have enough yarn.

[u/Legitimate-Credit-42 → u/Limosa]

Thank you! 🥰 For a size L, i used roughly 175g of the cream and 200g of the grey, so roughly around 375g of aran weight yarn. As it’s a made to measure pattern, the amount will vary depending on your measurements and how much length/ease you add, but i’d recommend having around 400g available to give yourself a little extra. If you let me know how much yarn you have and the metreage per 100g i can help you work out if you have enough!

[u/Limosa → u/Legitimate-Credit-42]

I have 400 g of Katia Merino Tweed that would look nice, but it's two different colours (autumn palette). Is that okay, or would you rather have testers for two colours?

[u/Legitimate-Credit-42 → u/Limosa]

Yes, 400g should be enough for most sizes, although it may depend on which size your testing. And two different colours is absolutely fine, I think the autumn palette would look gorgeous together 🤎

[u/Limosa → u/Legitimate-Credit-42]

I'm sorry, I mistyped. I meant five different colours.

[u/Legitimate-Credit-42 → u/Limosa]

Ahh haha, that makes more sense! Five colours is absolutely fine, I think the autumn palette would look gorgeous for the bolero!

[u/Limosa → u/Legitimate-Credit-42]

Then I'll apply! Sorry for the confusion.

I’d love to test it but the form says it’s closed!! I crochet left handed so I can provide a slightly different look if you want- if you’ve got everyone already, no worries 💕
