Our Donegal DK is really fun to dye. The brown and black neps resist the dye and so remain prominent in the yarn. These work with warm colours for a classic look. The yarn has a slightly warm base tone to it from the nep blending and takes the dye really well. The fabric is soft with an even stitch definition. Suitable for all knitted garments, including socks on a tight gauge. Please note the reason this yarn is not OEKO-TEX® certified is because of the neps.
