FAQ

What kind of yarn to choose for chunky knit cardigans?

Oh, there is only one answer to this question. Actually, two. If you want to keep your cardigan chunky and delightful, go bulky or super bulky! It will feel and look fabulous. And so soft! Having wool in the blend is always nice for winter but if you have allergies, 100% acrylic will work just as well!

Are knit cardigans easy enough for beginners?

The ones you can see above definitely are! Simplicity is present on so many levels here – we have minimalist fashion style and beginner-firendly patterns. If you are new to knitting clothes, a chunky cardigan is a great option for you.

How to choose the right color for a chunky knit cardigan?

It all depends on what colors you like the most for autumn and winter. If you need extra energy, bold or deep shades are what you should consider. We are talking mustard yellow, burgundy or dark green. If, on the other hands, you live for sense-soothing pastels and neutrals during the cold seasons, we recommend you wrap yourself in those beiges, powder pinks and light greys.
