Bulky weight yarn, designated yarn weight symbol 5, creates warm projects with a larger gauge and quicker knitting experience. Typically worked on needles ranging from US 9 to US 11 (5.5mm to 8mm), bulky yarn is a favorite for cold-weather accessories, sweaters, blankets, and projects where texture takes center stage.

The Woolly Thistle’s bulky weight yarn collection celebrates natural fibers from heritage mills and makers around the world. Explore wool yarns with structure, warmth, and character, ready for creating handmade pieces that highlight everything we love about working with wool.
