How quickly will a blanket or baby item work up with this super-bulky yarn?

The #6 super-bulky gauge dramatically reduces stitch counts and row numbers, so blankets and garments knit or crochet up much faster than with lighter yarns. Chunky stitches create the plush, blanket-worthy texture that shows off simple patterns beautifully.
