One More Thing to Consider:
Choosing the Right Yarn Type for Your Project
There are plenty of yarn textures and types to choose from—chenille, tube, plush, wool, and the list goes on!
If you're looking for a piece that works year-round, consider opting for a yarn with a smoother such as tube, less fluffy finish. While fluffy yarns are perfect for cozying up during colder seasons, a neater, more polished texture will keep your decor looking stylish no matter the time of year.
Get cozy, get creative, and go chunky—whether big or small, your space will thank you!
