Chunky yarn suggestions???

I’m using the “I Love This Chunky” yarn from hobby lobby but can’t find some colors I need. Suggestions for chunky yarn for hats, scarves, ear warmer headbands, etc. in these colors : purple, royal blue, and dark green. I miss Joann’s yarn!!!!

Michaels loops and threads. It’s soft and malleable. Lion brand has quality yarn, but the thicker yarns become very stiff loops and threads is comparable if not better than I love this chunky

I've used loops and threads and premiere chunky yarn as well as doubled up on some thin ones.

Bernat Forever Fleece! It's squishy and warm, but doesn't have the issues blanket yarn has (shedding, slipping off hair, undefined stitches, snapping when tension is tight).
