These balls are only 50 grams or 1.7 ounces instead of the typical 7 oz sizes of this Red Heart Super Saver Brand. Even as a seasoned crocheter or knitter, getting all of these colours in one kit is a solution to have colouring options if you want to speckle your creations with colour but don't need full balls for it.
You can take some great projects like the Crochet Dog Coat and apply the colours as you see fit. The pattern doesn't suggest changing the colour, but you can be creative and enjoy it. The gray you see is not in the kit to be fully transparent.

It's a problem with having a global platform. Someone is always missing opportunity depending where they live. Being Canadian, I'm in the same boat.
