Crochet level: Intermediate (front post stitches are used in this pattern).

Materials:

~~ Yarn in 1-2 colors. I used yarn “SoftFun” yarn by Scheepjes.

For two-colored ONE mandala: Yarn A – 1 skein, Yarn B – 3.2 skeins

For one-colored ONE mandala: 4 skeins of Soft Fun

I also made 24 pompoms and used approx. 120g (2.5 skeins) of SoftFun yarn for them.

~Crochet hook 3.5 mm (E) or size needed to get an acceptable gauge. I recommed to crochet tight so that Sakura mandala doesn’t become too holey.

~Scissors, yarn needle, ready round pillow form, zipper.
