Top tips for

CHUNKY

KNITS

Choose an airblown yarn

to keep it light. DROPS Air

would be a good example

of this

When seaming, use a

matching thinner yarn

in a matching colour –

much easier!

Be careful when substituting

• there’s more variation
  within the category of
  ‘chunky’ than there is in
  other weights!

If your joints get sore easily,

go for something worked in

small pieces and is seamed

so it doesn’t get too heavy

Bigger yarn = bigger swatch.

Measure over at least 25

stitches, even if that’s more

than 10cm
