Finding the Right Universal Yarn for Your Project

Universal Yarn is known for a broad lineup of fibers and weights, making it easy to find the right match whether you're knitting a sweater, crocheting a blanket or looking for a soft yarn for baby gifts. Here's how to navigate the Universal Yarn collection and choose with confidence.

Choosing a Fiber and Weight

Universal Yarn Uptown Worsted and Uptown DK are reliable acrylic options for everyday garments and accessories, while Universal Yarn Cotton Supreme suits warm-weather makes and dishcloths. For something plush, Universal Yarn Bella Chenille works up into soft blankets and baby items, and Bamboo Pop blends cotton and bamboo for drapey garments. If you want self-striping color without juggling multiple skeins, Universal Yarn Major or Colorburst deliver built-in pattern.

Using Color Kits and Patterns

Universal Yarn's Color Kits pair pre-selected shades for colorwork projects, taking the guesswork out of combining hues. Pairing a kit with the matching Universal Yarn pattern is an easy way to start a coordinated project, from stranded sweaters to simple garter-stitch blankets.
