3 strands of yarn from 1 skein

So have you ever had a pattern tell you to work with 3 strands of yarn? Here’s how to do it without having 3 skeins of yarn

This also works if you need a bulky yarn but only have worsted :wink:

Rugs are often made using 3 strands (Ira Rott designs a lot of rugs)…
I’ve seen other times too, but honestly for me, I use it more when a pattern calls for bulky
