This is a super-quick knit using two different gauges of yarns. Pick one super-bulky yarn and one that is worsted, aran, or even chunky.

NOTE: I knit pretty loosely, so check your gauge! Also, probably works best when there is a difference of 2 or 3 yarn weights between your yarns. Also, the Mecha I used was on the lighter side of chunky, more on the aran side.

I chose a 2-ply super-bulky with lots of variegation and a light chunky 1-ply semi-solid to get good contrast and show off each yarn well. It will seem small while you work on it, but when you bind off…drapey, squishy bliss.

YARDAGE:
CC1: 1 skein Malabrigo Caracol or 90 yards of a similar super-bulky yarn
CC2: 1 skein Malabrigo Mecha or approximately 90 yarns of an similar bulky yarn
