Quick and Cozy

I love how quickly bulky yarns work up. Some times I don't have the bulk of yarn I want so pairing two skeins together does the trick and adds extra dimension to the project. Adding two of different weights or one more shimmery than the other adds interesting detail too! Have fun with it!!!
