Yarn?
Help! Okay so I am new to knitting, I have been teaching myself over the last couple of weeks with one of those "I Taught Myself Knitting" books.

I went to Michaels today after work and the only bulky weight yarn I could find were horrid pastels. They only had about 4 or 5 colors from what I could find. Am I just missing it? Where do you buy your bulky weight yarn? What kind of yarn do you recommend?
