The velvet yarn I used for this pattern.
This yarn I ordered from eBay, It’s not from a popular brand.
Yarn suggestion
When I checked the gauge with my Crochet Hook Gauge ruler, My gauge swatch (4” x 4”) with H-8, 5mm crochet hook was 16 sc x 16 rows. It’s similar to the Bernat Baby Velvet Yarn. I think Bernat Baby Velvet Yarn is a perfect yarn than Vel-Luxe yarn on the Lion Brand website and Bernat Velvet yarn.
Gauge: 16 sc x 16 rows = (4” x 4”) with H-8, 5mm crochet hook.
