Wool and the Gang Super Bulky Yarn

Wool and the Gang’s Crazy Sexy Wool in Bordeaux — a deep wine-red super-bulky in 100% Peruvian wool, the chunkiest of WATG’s ribbon-wrapped ‘Crazy Sexy’ family. Quick-knit gauge for blankets, sweaters, scarves and the kind of cushion that holds the room together.

This listing is for either a full 200g skein or a partial ball (~6 oz / 170g). Pick a variant; 4 full skeins and 7 partials available.

About the yarn:

Crazy Sexy Wool is WATG’s signature super-bulky — 100% Peruvian wool, 200 g / 87 yd per full skein, knits at around 5–6 sts per 4” on big US 19 / 15 mm needles. Bordeaux is a saturated wine red — deeper than crimson, with a quiet brown warmth in the strand. A full skein is roughly a chunky cowl or one panel of a blanket; the partials are sized for hat-tops, colour-block stripes, and finishing touches.

About Wool and the Gang:

Wool and the Gang is the London-based wool and DIY-craft brand that built the modern chunky-knit boom — their Crazy Sexy Wool, knitted on tree-branch-sized needles, became the template for the fast-and-cosy super-bulky aesthetic. The Peruvian wool is sourced and spun in Peru, with the brand running a long-term transparent supply chain. Bordeaux is a perennial favourite, paired easily with cream, charcoal, and burnt orange.
