Sung to the tune of "What can you do with a drunken sailor," of course. ;)
Turns out, quite a lot, if you mix 'n match with other yarns. Take, for example, the 18 yards of uber soft undyed Targhee I decided to play with rather than list on my shop. I paired it with a ball of Cascade 128 (which is 128 yards of chunky superwash merino omg) that I had gotten on sale.
Doesn't look like that much yarn, right?

A ball of forest green Cascade 128 machine spun yarn surrounded by a hank of handspun thick-and-thin white Targhee yarn. The label for the Targhee (my shop label) peeks out from under it.
I thought maybe I'd get a hat with a couple of stripes out of them.
Well I'm mostly done with the hat, and this is what I've got. ( read on for two photos and be amazed )
