Using this Jamieson's of Shetland Marl Chunky Yarn is a breeze. Start by choosing your favorite knitting or crochet pattern that suits the bulky weight of the yarn. You can use larger needles or hooks to make the process quicker. For knitting, simple stitches like garter or stockinette can show off the yarn's color well. When crocheting, single or double crochet stitches work great. As for care, it's best to hand - wash your finished projects in cool water with a mild wool detergent. Gently squeeze out the water and lay the item flat to dry to keep its shape. Avoid wringing or twisting the wool. Also, store your unused yarn in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
