  • Colors A (Brim): 100g
  • Colors B, C, D, and E, (Body Colors): 25g - 50g each

Note: The pattern will still work with even more colors, but will lose the repeating effect. It can also work with an even rather than odd number of colors; this will make each color look more vertically stacked, rather than alternating and woven.
