Notes

MC (Ritual): 101.5g - 37.4g left = 64.1g used
CC (Radioactive raspberry jam): 102.9g - 33.6g left = 69.3g used

This yarn feels scratchy when being worked, but after wet blocking, definitely softer and wearable. This is very thick and will be super warm in the winter.

I wouldn’t recommend using Aran weight yarn. Just too tight to knit.
