This toothy, Highland DK is a brilliant sweater yarn. It takes the dye really well, colours will appear more muted than on a superwash yarn, but brights can be achieved with a little more effort. The undyed yarn sucks up the dye, and speckles will spread softly. This is a great choice for Fair Isle projects and that’s why we have this yarn available in both 100g and 50g skein presentations. The fabric knits really nicely and blocks out, retaining its shape.
