I was given the colorful ones and bought Lion Brand white fisherman wool to use to make a shawl with the three
started the project 3 different times- dissatisfied with the results after 1 band 2 band 3 bands LOL ripped it out and started over again- keeping it simple and when colors change I will pick up yarn then cut when necessary so I do not have a bulky edge.

progress.
Did some measuring and weighing. I have knit 7-1/2 inches so far and used 2-1/2 ounces of yarn. I have 14.5 ounces of yarn left . I should be able to knit another 40+ inches if I calculate correctly.
we will see. I am sure I will run out of "colors" before the off white. So I can just buy two more colors and keep going.
**
3.5 white & 4.0 white
3.5 green
3.5 purple.
