Can you use Bernat blanket yarn for a scarf?
It is pretty thick yarn. You could make the scarf, but it would be awfully bulky, heavy, and hard to wear.
What size yarn is good for a scarf?
Yarn Weight (Thickness)
| Yarn Weight | US Needle Size | Common Uses |
|---|---|---|
| Medium- or worsted-weight, afghan, Aran | 7–9 | Sweaters, blankets, outdoor wear (hats, scarves, mittens, and so on) |
| Bulky or chunky | 10–11 | Rugs, jackets, blankets |
| Super bulky | 13–15 | Heavy blankets and rugs, sweaters |
What size yarn is best for scarf?
I would personally recommend DK weight yarn, worsted weight yarn, and bulky weight yarn. These three yarn weights, hovering in the middle of the road, are thick enough to work up in a reasonable amount of time and provide warmth, but not so thick that you’ll feel like you’re wearing big woven ropes around your neck.
