Question
YarnBall
I have 9 skeins of super chunky Sirdar Big Softie yarn. I originally bought the yarn to make into mats for my front and back doors. After getting started, I started to realize that the yarn is so soft and cushy, I can't bear to use it for mats! I'd love to make myself a sweater or cardigan but there aren't very many patterns using super chunky yarn that look flattering. The next most wanted item I'd like to make is a throw. But, it seems that I need about double the amount of yarn that I have to make a decent sized one.
I'd prefer to use what I have and not buy more. I'm also trying to use up the 9 skeins and not have too much leftover. I've been spending hours searching for a pattern that will match the number of skeins I have. Am I being unrealistic? My head is spinning now and I haven't found any patterns that will fit with the number of skeins I have AND that I love.
Any suggestions?
