🧶 Materials

  • Crochet hook suitable for your chosen yarn

  • Safety eyes

  • Toy stuffing

  • Darning needle

  • Long upholstery needle

  • Dressmaker's pins

  • Stitch markers

  • Scissors

Mercerised cotton yarn is particularly suitable for African Flower projects because it provides excellent stitch definition and helps reduce the visibility of stuffing between the stitches.
