Welcome! I’m Mary Lee… the knitter and designer behind Fifty Four Ten Studio. I have been knitting, sewing and crafting since I was about eight years old. I published my first knitting pattern in 2013 and my collection now includes more than 70 designs. Fifty Four Ten Studio is named for the house number of the home my grandparents purchased when my mother was a young girl.
Check out the blog posts below to find all the details about the yarns I recommend for knitting baby blankets, throws, chunky afghans, scarves, and shawls, as well as many other knitting projects.
Each blog post includes yarns in a variety of fiber content (wool, acrylic, cotton, etc.), as well as a wide range of price points.
Fifty Four Ten Studio does not sell yarn. However, you will find shopping resources for all my favorite yarns in the blog posts listed below!

#6 WEIGHT YARN: 12 Super Bulky Yarns for Knitting Cozy Blankets, Afghans and More
These lists are updated periodically to add new recommendations, as well as reflect the ever changing availability of yarns and shopping resources.
One of the hardest decisions when starting a knitting project is picking the best yarn to suit your project from the thousands of yarns available on the market. I hope these lists of recommended yarns help you narrow down the choices so you can shop for yarn and get started on your next project!
Happy knitting!
Mary Lee
