Wiggly and Twisty Twisty, Chunky Yarns
Twisty Twisty
This yarn is a personal favorite of mine! It’s ideal for quick knitting projects with simple stitches. The yarn itself adds all the flair, resulting in a piece that looks far more intricate than it actually is!
This yarn is excellent for crafting blankets, throws, bed runners, and cushions. It creates a beautifully textured scarf (minimum one ball) or cowl. It’s also ideal for knitting cozy dog or cat baskets.
And Ruth, a crafting enthusiast, who helps pack your orders had this to say about Twisty Twisty:
“It’s my favorite among all our yarns to work with because it feels so lovely in your hands. It has a super soft, silky finish. My favorite color is the pink. It’s a really lovely dusty shade and has a gorgeous variable fleck.”
Twisty Twisty Super Chunky 3 Ply Yarn Blend, made with high-quality acrylic fibers. Each 500-gram skein boasts an impressive length of 24 meters. The yarn is 2cm wide , perfect for creating cozy and chunky projects. To work with this yarn, we recommend using needle or hook sizes ranging from 25mm to 40mm. Or try table or floor knitting.

Wiggly
Super chunky wiggly is a fabulous yarn option for all your cozy knitting projects. With a blend of 30% wool and 70% acrylic, it offers both warmth and durability. Each 200-gram ball measures 10 metres in length, making it perfect for quick and satisfying creations. Use a needle size of 20mm-25mm to achieve the desired chunky look. It can also be Floor or Table Knitted, please see the videos below. And when it comes to care, simply machine wash on a gentle, slow, and cool cycle, then dry flat – no tumble drying needed.
I can’t decide on my favourite colour, although I often find myself choosing mauve, but then again, I also like bronze.
Ruth suggests, “For a craft project requiring something less mahoosive, this is an ideal choice. It’s excellent for thick scarves and chunky hats, available in a beautiful array of autumnal colors.”
