Probably our toothiest DK, this is a plump, robust, woolly, wool yarn. The yarn takes the dye well and sucks up colour especially well for a non-superwash. The colours do appear a little more muted than on a superwash yarn. The resulting knitted fabric is crisp with a lovely stitch definition. This yarn is great for colourwork, hence we have this base in 50g and 20g minis, as well as the standard 100g skeins. The fabric keeps its shape exceptionally well when knitted.
