We are very excited to announce something big coming to space! Something very big. And quite a bit bulky. Introducing Big Stitch Merino! These crazy huge skeins are 94% merino and 6% nylon, making for a squishy soft treat with a ton of character! Each skein is 125 yards and is made a small mill in Ohio. At $150 per skein, this yarn is sure to create a variety of cool and interesting projects that are sure to brighten up your winter!
With big, beautiful skeins like this, every stitcher is going to need some new tools! Lucky for us, BagSmith is also sending along some of their handmade size 50 needles and size U crochet hooks. These humongous tools will work great with any of our Big Stitch Merino or even with some of our other Super Bulky yarn like Blue Sky Alpacas Extra.
Pattern Inspiration
Big Stitch Merino comes with it’s own collection of project ideas that are sure to inspire. One skein will get you a seriously gorgeous Superduper in no time!
We also love the Purl Bee’s Big Stitch Crochet Rug and Big Stitch Rug patterns!
Perhaps one of those Knit Poofs that we keep seeing in furniture stores?
Bagsmith’s Cable and Rib Stole is another great one. And we have the pattern at the shop, or you can grab it online.
A giant shawl or small blanket is always a great option too. We love Tailor’s Chalk.
Or you can always try an armknit cowl! I love this one:
