Nordic Chunky by King Cole – Self‑Patterning Chunky Yarn with Superwash Merino

King Cole Nordic Chunky is a beautifully soft, self-patterning chunky yarn that brings effortless Fair Isle effects to blankets, scarves, jumpers, and more. Crafted from a premium 80% acrylic and 20% superwash merino wool blend, it’s machine washable, warm, and delightfully cosy – perfect for crisp autumn and winter projects.

Each generous 150g ball provides approximately 200 metres (218 yards) of textured yarn that knits up quickly on sturdy 6mm (US 10) needles, giving you around 14 stitches × 20 rows per 10 cm gauge. With its rich, flowing gradients, this yarn creates dramatic statement pieces without the fuss of changing colours.

Ideal for both home décor and wearable knits, Nordic Chunky combines stylish self-patterning with the softness and easy-care of superwash wool.
