Red Heart Super Saver Jumbo is a worsted-weight (#4) 100% acrylic yarn sold in double-size skeins, roughly equal to two regular Super Saver skeins. The larger put-up means fewer joins and fewer ends to weave in on big projects, and the solid colors are no-dye-lot, so a later skein matches the first. It is a workhorse acrylic: machine washable and dryable, sturdy, and inexpensive per yard, though it is coarser and stiffer than softer acrylics and cotton blends. It suits blankets, sweaters, and charity or craft-fair projects where you need a lot of yarn in one color; knitters who want a soft hand next to skin usually prefer a softer line.

Red Heart Super Saver Jumbo yarn is the same Super Saver yarn you love in larger skeins. Each Super Saver Jumbo skein is the size of two skeins of the regular Super Saver, so you have half as many ends to weave in. Just like Super Saver, Super Saver Jumbo has no-dye-lot solids. Super Saver Jumbo is ideal for sweaters, afghans, and other projects requiring large quantities of yarn. This product holds the OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification.
