How much yarn do I need to bind off?

You will need more for JSSBO than for a regular bind off. My rule of thumb is to leave 3 times the amount of yarn needed for a row for a regular bind off. JSSBO, I'll go 4 times or more. So if you used 3.5 yards for a pair of rows, you will need 1.75 yards (half) times 3 or 5.25 yards or 7 yards if you need 4 times.
