I used Elsebeth Lavold's silky tweed, a blend of wool & silk and got it quite cheap at webs and LOVED it! I also changed the purl bumps into regular garter stitch rows and didn't use any sequins, just the same yarn in color #16. I made the next-to smallest size, and am probably going to make another in the short sleeved version and will make the smallest size. I got gauge, but it turned out a bit looser than I imagined, but it's perfect for wearing over a tank top. LOVE THIS PATTERN!
