The above-mentioned yarn is not a requirement for the pattern, you can use any yarn of your choice, just note that using more lightweight yarn and smaller hook, the Blocks and blanket size will be overall smaller, and using a heavier yarn and larger hook, the squares will be larger and the overall blanket size will be larger.
Suggestions for yarn substitutions:
This pattern is a stash buster so pick a yarn that you enjoy working with.
I prefer a lightweight yarn, as this makes the blanket not too heavy, but the final choice is simply your preference. The final blanket size and Block sizes are based on the pattern being worked in 3.5 mm / US 4 /E-4 hook.
Hooks
Example pattern uses a: 3.5 mm / US 4 /E-4 fo the example yarn used.
