Im using worsted weight yarn and a 5mm hook and i did a gauge swatch and some mathing and its gonna b like 9 ft long. Luckily i havent bought the yarn yet but what should i do i feel like 9 ft is too long. Does anyone have any tips?? Pls help

You could split it in to 2, like one of the first months, and the second of the other months?
