Basix® Chunky

Very nice yarn

I have no complaints of this yarn. I worked a nice heavy blanket for my husband when he’s watching his team play. He loves it and says it’s soft and definitely warm. Works up well, frogs well and minimal knots. I’ll use it again

Soft Yarn and great price

I used Premier Basix Chunky to knit a cropped cardigan, combining US size 7 (for ribbing) and US size 10 (for the body). Here’s what I learned. Why the two needle sizes work: · The yarn holds ribbing beautifully on size 7s – tight, neat edges with no sagging. · On size 10s, the fabric relaxes into a nice, drapey-but-sturdy texture. Not too stiff, not floppy. Perfect for an everyday cardigan that holds its shape. Pros for this project: · Lightweight feel for a chunky yarn – the final cardigan isn't heavy or sweaty. · No splitting on size 10s – smooth glide, even with wooden needles. · Washes well – I machine washed gentle/cool and laid flat to dry. No shrinking or fuzzing. · Good stitch visibility – cables or simple stockinette both show clearly. Watch out for: · Gauge tension is critical. On size 10s, I got 12 sts/4" in stockinette. Swatch first – your gauge may differ. · The fabric on size 10s has some openness (not see-through, but breezy). Best for lightly layered or indoor cardigans. · If you want a denser, wind-resistant cardigan, stick closer to size 9. Size 10 gives drape but less warmth. Final verdict: Great budget choice for a casual, everyday cardigan. Just swatch and block before committing. I'd use it again for a chunky open-front cardigan or long duster coat.
