Valley Yarns Superwash Bulky Extra Fine Merino, Rico Essentials Mega Wool Chunky and Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Chunky

When using alternative Chunky/ Bulky yarns please choose a yarn that recommends 6mm (US 10) needles with the stocking stitch tension listed below. You will also need to refer to the yardage/meterage listed below when purchasing your alternative chunky yarn.
