You are so right about the assumption because when I first saw this I thought it took you days to complete instead of hours. I think you made a good choice by making something you knew you could use so this soft and thick yarn wouldn't go to waste. I have this same type of yarn in baby colors (light blue and pink) and I haven't gotten around to creating something with it yet. It looks so cozy, soft and warm! Thanks so much for sharing~ 😄
It is like dropping a Sea-Monkey in water; crochet and watch it grow! If you can get comfortable with a large hook, you will be amazed how quickly you can turn out a completed project.
