Gauge is not critical to this project, and is much looser than commonly seen for this yarn. The yarns are used doubled throughout, with addition of the accent yarn (Kid Seta) when used. The pattern calls for two skeins of Nature Wool, one skein of Cascade 220, 1 skein of Black Jack and 2 colors of Kid Seta in different shades of the same basic color (green in the sample). The Kid Seta is used to embellish the finished bag only, so not very much is needed.
