Chunky Weight Yarn

Chunky weight yarn is all about speed, warmth, and texture. Thicker than worsted but not as heavy as bulky, it produces a typical gauge of 12–15 stitches per 4 inches. Knits in chunky yarn work up quickly and create cozy fabrics with beautiful stitch definition. It’s a fantastic choice for beginner-friendly projects as well as instant-gratification knits like hats, cowls, and throws.

Because chunky yarns produce bold, substantial fabrics, they’re perfect for showcasing simple stitches, textures, and oversized accessories. They’re also a fun way to try new techniques on a smaller time investment—you can often finish a project in just a weekend.

Loop’s chunky weight yarns are curated for quality and beauty, with hand-dyed skeins and natural fibers that highlight depth of color and soft textures. Whether you’re knitting a cozy winter hat, a quick gift, or a bold accent piece, chunky yarn delivers warmth and impact in every stitch.
