I used worsted-weight yarn and #4 needles to
create a very firm fabric at 5.5 stitches per inch,
making the whole thing about 2.5 inches tall. You
need a sturdy fabric so that this piece will stand
up, but you could use just about any yarn and
needle combination. I only used two colors, but, if
you want to, it could include up to 8.

The website that previously hosted this has dropped all of my old patterns. They are currently unavailable, but I may reissue them at another time.
