Materials needed:

Refer to my versions & tester versions for examples of materials & yardage

(these are my *recommendations* this pattern can be followed using any yarn & needle combination; if your swatch comes out too dense or loose for your liking, experiment with different needles & the same yarn to see all your drape options <3)
* Yarn Material- any material will work- (my recommendations) something soft & breathable
