           Black                       Mustard yellow

           Acetate
And the essentials:
    Thread cutter            Stitch   markers   (I   use   spare

    Pins                     Tweezers

  JUST REMEMBER TO USE THE APPROPRIATE CROCHET
                       HOOK
      TIP: For amigurumis, I use a 1mm size less than the
                      preferred crochet hook size
   (e.g. recommended hook size is 3mm, I will size down to                  2
                                 2mm)
