Materials and Yarn Specifications

The Superboy Pouch is designed to work with medium weight (Aran/worsted weight) yarn, offering flexibility in color and brand selection.

A 3.50mm (size E) crochet hook is recommended for use with worsted weight yarn to achieve proper gauge and finished dimensions.

Additional materials include a tapestry needle for weaving in yarn ends and finishing the project. The pattern also calls for 2 black beads (optional), which can be added for decorative embellishment or detail work depending on maker preference.
