  1. Okay thank you. What bulk is this yarn? I can’t seem to find it.

  2. Hi Karanda, That should have read “Ch 3” not “Sk” I apologize! I’ve corrected the error. Thank you for bringing it to my attention!! Rhondda

  3. Could you please tell me what chain 3 I am supposed to skip r2 of the ear warmer?
