Tips for knitting with super bulky yarn
Most super bulky yarns call for US 11 to 17 needles or large crochet hooks. They're perfect for chunky hats, cowls, blankets, and cozy cardigans, and many projects can be done in a weekend. Because each stitch is large, gauge differences add up quickly, so a quick swatch is worth it for anything that needs to fit. Merino and alpaca are soft next to skin, and classic wool like Burly Spun holds its shape well.
