We knitted our own version of this iconic pattern by Midori Hirose @knitcafemidori , and opted for a combination of A Stormy Blend fingering and A Chic Blend as we guessed they were the most suitable bases for this piece.
So we built a couple of combinations for the yoke and the main color shade, that you can see in the photos above, but also listed some MINI bundles in different color mix HERE, just to give you some more options.... they're sooo many indeed!
