Not A Good Outcome

I tried using a different yarn to make, what I thought might be, an elegant, slender vase. But I was really disappointed with the results. Never dawned on me that it wouldn't look anything like the skein of yarn, plus I didn't look close enough to realize that this isn't variegated yarn, this is two strings combined as one, which made it actually harder to pull through the rows and really distorted the look. I learned if I want variegated yarn it must be just one string not two or more.
