LOOM: The loom I use in this project is a 41-peg XL gauge round loom to work the body part, and a 31-peg L gauge loom to work the sleeves.

YARN: The yarn I use here is a bulky weight yarn (size #6). If your thread is thinner than mine (a medium weight yarn), I recommend you to use 2 strands at the same time. For this project, I used 7 skeins of a yarn called Rosas Crafts Wasabi.
