Yarn
Fingering yarn. Normally knits at tensions 6-7.
You will want to knit a little looser for this afghan so if 6 is what you normally knit this yarn – knit the afghan at tension 7 or 8. When knitting 2 layers, you will have a nicer drape and softer feel if you loosen the tension at least 1 number and many times 2 numbers.
