Using Jamieson's of Shetland Marl Chunky Yarn is a breeze. For knitting, you can use large - sized knitting needles, and for crocheting, choose a thick crochet hook. It works great for both simple and complex patterns. When starting a project, leave a long enough tail to secure the beginning. As you work, make sure your stitches are consistent to keep the fabric looking even. After finishing your project, you can gently hand - wash it in cool water with a mild wool detergent. Avoid wringing the yarn; instead, gently press out the excess water. Lay the item flat to dry to maintain its shape. Also, store the yarn in a dry place away from direct sunlight and pests to keep it in good condition.
