Yarn – Size 2 sport
3 mm (US C/2) crochet hook
Stitch marker (optional)
Tapestry needle
Scissor
Fiberfill stuffing

I have used the Lamia Cotton Mini Yarn. On Amazon, it is listed as light worsted DK weight yarn, but in reality, it is more like sport weight yarn. When working with it, the yarn splits. I wouldn’t recommend it if you cannot stand strands getting separated easily. I am using these yarns only because they have a really pretty pastel color.
