A plant fiber in a Fingering or Sport weight will provide the most drape for this design, and I've included a couple of other yarn suggestions at lower price points below. That said, please use any yarn that is accessible to you. A fingering weight wool will work perfectly fine. I've also created [this spreadsheet][5] of Budget Yarn Options to assist with financial accessibility. ***$$$*** **[Ritual Dyes Undine][6]**, $22.00/100g (70% Organic Cotton/30% Linen, 383yds/100g) ***$*** [Sandnes Garn Line][7], $6.50/50g (53% Cotton, 33% Viscose, 14% Linen, 120yds/50g) [KnitPicks Shine Sport][8], $3.99/50g (60% Cotton, 40% Modal, 110yds/50g) [KnitPicks Lindy Chain][9], $6.99/50g (70% Linen/30% Cotton, 180yds/50g) [DMC Natura Linen][10], $5.49/50g (58% Linen, 26% Viscose, 16% Cotton, 164yds/50g) **Yardage:** 432-540 (492-615, 552-690, 612-765, 672-840){732-915, 792-990, 852-1065, 912-1140}yds 395-494 (450-562, 505-631, 559-699, 614-768){669-836, 724-905, 779-973, 834-1042}m **Gauge:** 22 sts & 32 rows per 4x4 square in stockinette, flat & in the round, blocked **Suggested Needles:** US 5 – 3.75 mm circular needles (main body) US 3 – 3.25 mm circular needles (optional, used for ribbed finishes only) **Materials: ** fingering weight yarn, circular needles, stitch markers, scrap yarn or stitch holders, extra needle for 3-needle bind off, darning needle **Techniques:** knitting in the round, bottom up, increasing, holding stitches, 3-needle bind off, wet blocking [1]: https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/sosummershirt/ [2]: https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/sosummershorts/ [3]: https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/sosummerset/ [4]: https://www.instagram.com/jessssiemae/ [5]: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kvJ7x_RXTYzZUrKl2gNOhClp3mSfbVFJZdDxP-Uzjn4/edit?usp=sharing [6]: https://ritualdyes.com/products/undine-1 [7]: https://motherknitter.com/shop/line/ [8]: https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/shine-sport/c/5420122?gclid=Cj0KCQjw9YWDBhDyARIsADt6sGZWWK0vifc27H4aMNsuMqh-SkRR7OQGFXj74K5TtL3jZFQtd7OJWggaAp8iEALw_wcB [9]: https://www.knitpicks.com/yarn/lindy-chain/c/5420254 [10]: https://www.dmc.com/uk/natura-linen-5809.html
