Using this Jamieson's of Shetland Marl Chunky Yarn is a breeze. For knitting, you can use large - sized needles to bring out the chunky texture of the yarn. For crocheting, choose a big hook. When starting a project, make sure to wind the yarn into a ball for easier handling. As it's natural wool, it might shed a bit at first, but that's normal. To maintain your finished item, hand - wash it in cool water with a gentle wool detergent. Lay it flat to dry to keep its shape. Avoid hanging it as it could stretch. Also, store your yarn in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
