Red Heart puts out a wide range of yarns, some which would be far too too
thin for the 270, and some which would be just right - which particular Red
Heart yarn did you have in mind?

I have a question?
 

The Red Heart Yarn that you can purchace in bundles at the department stores
,like at Walmart,or even the red heart yarn that can be purchased on line .

Yes, but WHICH Red Heart yarns? Surely the label says more than just 'Red
Heart'!

I have a question?
 

Hi Stella,

I have a Brother KH270 and I can knit DK at between T1 or 2 , and aran and
chunky at higher numbers. If you mean US worsted weight, which I understand
is between DK and aran in thickness, then I would think you could use it at
a fairly low tension.

The red heart yarn is the size of the dk,yes I guess that is what you call
it the 3 and 4 ply worsted weight , that you can handknit or crochet with
..I was just wondering if it is or is not recommended that the 3 or 4 ply
yarn could be knitted on the machine .Would it cause pits in the machine
bed?

Thanks for your help.

The biggest problem with using Red Heart in skeins is having to wind it
and change out the yarn all the time. It will not hurt your machine at
all.

Hi Stella,
Most of the Redhear yarns can be used on the bulky machines. I use the worsted and sport weight on my elna bulky (9mm) with no problems. I wouldn't try and do dbj with the worsted as it would make too heavy a fabric. I've used it to make ski hats, scarves, shawls, mittens and afghans. You'll have to adjust the tension for the thickness of the yarn.
Good luck,
Allen
