This pattern used up the remaining skein and a half I had of Loops and Threads Impeccable yarn in Forrest Green. I also had a small amount of a pink Vanna's Choice yarn that I used to make the flower. Both Impeccable and Vanna's Choice are worsted weight yarns. You can make this bag with any worsted weight yarn you have.
