The materials supply list in the Royal School of Needlework Book suggests Super Pearl Purl and Fine Purl Purl for the outlines on the Iris petals and leaves. It is not indicated in the instructions where the Fine Pearl Purl is used on the design so I suggest using the Super Pearl Purl for all the outlines.
