"This yarn is listed on the website as a #5 bulky yarn, it is listed on ravelry as a #6 super bulky, either way the 5 mm needle is far too tight, feels like it could break the needle tight. The recommended needle size for this yarn is 6.5 mm, I'm going to try that to see if it helps with the tightness and drape."

"There seems to be instructions missing from the pattern to finish the bag at the bottom. I think I will start it with a false cast on, so I can do a 3 needle bind off at the end."

"This websites pattern are no longer free, they now require a paid membership subscription."

"This pattern is old, it's been on here for more than 10 years and the yarn was discontinued almost that long ago. There are a lot of comments on the ravelry listing for the pattern about issues with the pattern but no one has mentioned the cast on being a problem, however I did notice that this websites states worsted weight yarn, when bamboo naturals was in fact a bulky weight yarn."
Lisa
"It's not you, this particular designer has a knack for over complicating even the most basic knitting patterns and making every intermediate while making up and adding in her own made up abbreviations."

Upon arrival I see a beautifully packaged skein of yarn in a cream-colored sheer bag with a ribbon pull string. I can tell the yarn is going to be just as beautiful, but I didn't even want to take it out of the bag. I quickly got over that and pulled out the skein of James C. Brett Marble Chunky Yarn and Oh, My! This yarn is super soft to the touch and makes me want to just roll around in it. The first thing that came to mind while squishing it was a big, bulky sweater. This yarn is perfect for those cold winter months.


James C. Brett Marble Chunky Yarn is 200g of 100% acrylic. It is machine washable, but clearly states you should not use chlorine bleach. This yarn that caught my eye is in a stunning green and blue variegated color that reminds me of the ocean, combined with a waterfall and forest. It comes in other variegated colors like burnt orange and teal, different shades of pink, purple and gray, and multi-color, just to name a few. This yarn knits to most chunky patterns and is really easy to work with.


There are so many possibilities and knitting patterns you can make with this chunky yarn. From hats and scarves, to blankets and sweaters, you will easily find something that pleases you. This yarn will keep you warm and cozy all winter long. Best of all, the chunkiness is great for those just learning how to knit; this is a great beginner yarn.

I have to make a comment about this yarn! I've been using it for crochet patterns for 3 years and it is FABULOUS! You won't regret using it for crocheting. My concern is for those who knit, since I have seen swatches on display in my local store and honestly, WOULD NOT BUY THIS YARN if my work turned out like their knitted examples. WHY? This is a Z-twist yarn which is great for crochet as opposed to S-twist which is great for knitting. Something happens to yarn when you knit with Z and crochet with S. I didn't KNOW that until I first crocheted with Z twist. I have crocheted the same item with both yarn types, and the results are truly different. I haven't knitted years, so I haven't done that test. I would be interested in knowing what others have experienced knitting and crocheting this particular yarn. I really would like to see someone post online comparisons!
