Using Jamieson's of Shetland Marl Chunky Yarn is a breeze. For knitting, you can use large - sized knitting needles to quickly build up your project. For crocheting, choose a thick crochet hook. This yarn is great for both beginners and experienced crafters. When working with it, you'll notice how smoothly it glides through your hands. As for care, since it's made of natural wool, it's best to hand - wash your finished items in lukewarm water with a gentle wool detergent. Lay them flat to dry to avoid stretching. Keep your yarn in a cool, dry place to prevent it from getting damp or attracting moths. And don't forget to keep the yarn untangled while you're working on your project by using a yarn holder or simply winding it loosely into a ball as you go.
