(as seen in "Robot") The default values you see below are for the yarn I recommended above but you can enter the yardage for whatever yarn you are buying. I have allowed for the extra yarn needed for tassels so this should be plenty, but it is still just a general guide! Enter yards per skein of each color: Beige: Green: Gray: Brown: Purple: Yellow: Red: Blue Sky Alpaca This yarn comes in great colors and it is Alpaca, which is very soft and luxurious.
