Brilliantly Bulky: 12 Free Crochet Patterns Round Up
/So many people tell you to start with a pattern you love or a specific project you need and then find yarn that works with it. I guess those people were never yarn shopping on a sale day or at a fiber festival! Those huge skeins of yarn look just SO SQUISHY and you just end up taking them home. Where to go from there? To our Brilliantly Bulky: 12 Free Crochet Patterns Round Up!
We’ve focused this free crochet pattern round up on patterns that use Bulky weight yarn. With all the projects out there, it can be overwhelming to find something to fit with your stash.
Some of our favorite Bulky weight yarns are…
WeCrochet Tuff Puff - 100% Wool (See it in action here)
WeCrochet Wool of the Andes Bulky - 100% Peruvian Highland Wool
BettaKnit Cool Wool - 100% Wool (Check it out here!)
WeCrochet Mighty Stitch - 20% Superwash Wool, 80% Acrylic
Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick & Quick - Acrylic/Wool blend dependent on variations (Proof is here, here & here!)(oh, and here)
Lion Brand Color Made Easy: 100% Acrylic

One of the advantages of working with a heavier weight yarn is the project MOVES. Blink your eyes and it’s done! It’s amazing how quickly some of these projects will work up for you.
Of course, because of that, there are a lot of free patterns out there for Bulky weight yarn. Who doesn’t love a satisfying and fast make? We really hope we’re able to introduce you to some new to you designers and patterns with this free pattern round up!
