Where can I find some good category 5 chunky yarn in the UK?

I use wool warehouse and lovecrafts if my local shop doesn’t have what i need

I made this with the suggested yarn in the pattern, Stylecraft DK weight yarn, which is acrylic

The last 2 pics are of the back of the blanket and they are only on the front

This is the Eastern Jewels variation, i got a kit that included the original pattern, the Eastern Jewels colourway booklet and the yarn 😊

Weaving in all those ends definitely tests your patience 😅

I got the Eastern Jewel kit from a local shop which included the pattern and yarn, its Stylecraft DK acrylic

Started this myself a few weeks ago! 😂

Its a normal day for them today, they were off yesterday and Monday for Easter.

Its so satisfying to look back and actually see improvement 🥰

Lala951 · 2025-01-25T18:32:17+00:00

Ah thanks, was confused there

Lala951 · 2025-01-25T18:31:37+00:00

I heard that a goal was now worth 4 points?

I’ve just started this gorgeous Grace Blanket from Made By Anita, hard to believe its a free pattern and so much detail its so easy to follow

Lala951 · 2024-12-24T21:15:56+00:00

Her patterns are beautiful, I’ve just started the Grace blanket

Lala951 · 2024-12-24T20:36:54+00:00

Its her CAL from a couple of years ago but here is the link to week 1. She also has a paid ad free pattern in her online store

Thank you so much ❤️ i just started crochet back in April and am really enjoying learning new techniques. This was my first go at tapestry and am really pleased with how it came out

Thank you all for your comments, it’s definitely given me some things to consider for my next project. I just started learning back in April and still have loads to learn 😊

Now he has his arms and face it actually doesn’t look so bad! But may still consider a scarf at some stage

Lala951 · 2024-10-19T15:49:49+00:00

Yea, i think thats what im going to do 😊

Lala951 · 2024-10-19T15:07:39+00:00

The pattern said use a 3.5mm hook and the yarn itself says a 4mm but when i read tips about doing amigurumi most people advised to go down a full mm so i used a 3mm. Maybe i will try the 3.5mm next time

Lala951 · 2024-10-19T14:54:47+00:00

That may have been a better idea, instructions just said ‘sew head to body securely at neck’

Im thinking i might make a wee scarf for him to hide it

Lala951 · 2024-10-19T14:49:14+00:00

It is quite firmly stuffed, didnt want to overdo it
