Chunky, bulky, giant knits, the bigger the better! I love to knit with chunky yarn as it always results in something big, warm, and cuddly. And what’s better to knit than a chunky knit blanket? Plus, it knits fast!
For the beginner, a chunky knit blanket kit is perfect to start off with. I have picked out some easy knitting kits for those who are at the beginning of their knitting career, but also more advanced projects for the intermediate knitter.
These are my favorite chunky blanket kits out there!
