Yarn Weight 5 Bulky (16)

Bulky yarn is useful for creating a wide range of yarn crafts. Its chunky strands are great for designing home decor, knitting clothing, crochet, even making kitchen accessories. If you have a creative itch that needs to be scratched, turn to this versatile yarn for relief. One of the thicker yarn varieties that we provide, here are some reasonable expectations for gauges over 4 inches. For a knitting stockinette, you can realistically expect 12 to 15 stitches. With single crochet, you can expect 8 to 11 stitches. Similar to other chunky yarns, this makes it a great choice for knitting sweaters and scarves. Crochet beanies are fun to create and make great gifts during the colder months. Need a couple personalized gift ideas for Christmas or a birthday? Chunky blankets and knit clothes can all be customized to fit the person you’re crafting for. Leave space to monogram their name, and use their favorite colors for a look they’re sure to love. Each of our skeins comes richly colored, and we make every effort to pull the same dye lots across multiple skeins. A yarn weight references the thickness of each strand, not necessarily the heaviness of the yarn itself. Don’t shy away from using this yarn to make a cozy baby blanket. Newborns are sure to love the cozy softness. Try out some of our macrame cord to craft home decor for yourself or family members.
