100g. 94% Acrylic, 6% Metallic. Chunky.
£3.99
Flutterby Sparkle Chunky gives your next project a subtle shimmer without any extra effort — the metallic thread is woven right through the yarn, so every stitch catches the light as you knit. Whether you’re casting on a chunky bobble hat, a wrap-style cardigan, or a cosy cowl, that gentle glint adds just enough interest to make the finished piece feel a little bit special.
The blend is 94% acrylic and 6% metallic fibre, giving you a yarn that’s smooth through your fingers and easy to work at pace on 6mm needles. Stitches sit cleanly and consistently, so textured patterns — think ribbed scarves or a simple cable-knit jumper — come out neat and well-defined. It’s a chunky weight, so your projects grow satisfyingly fast.
Flutterby Sparkle Chunky comes in a palette designed to complement the metallic thread, from warm, rich tones to cooler, frosted shades. The sparkle reads differently depending on the colourway — brighter in deeper hues, softer and almost pearlescent in lighter ones. Whichever shade you choose, the finished fabric has a depth that plain yarn simply can’t match.
Being predominantly acrylic, this yarn is robust enough for everyday accessories and gifts that will actually get worn and washed regularly. A 30°C machine wash keeps things straightforward, and with 175m per 100g ball, you get good yardage for the weight. Just avoid tumble drying and ironing to keep the metallic fibres looking their best.
