DK Weight Yarn
DK stands for double knitting and refers to a medium weight yarn between a sport and worsted weight. DK wool yarn is a great choice for knitting cozy accessories, toys, blankets and jumpers. DK yarn knits up quickly, making it satisfying to work with. Learn more with our in-depth guide to dk yarn, including what hook or needle size to use, international conversions, and more.
DK Sock Yarn
DK sock yarn is exactly what it sounds like! DK weight yarn specially designed for knitting socks. This DK yarn is normally superwash treated, meaning it is machine washable, and contains a small percentage of nylon. The addition of nylon means the yarn will spring back into shape after being stretched out. You don’t have to just use this yarn for socks though. DK sock yarn is great for anything that needs to be durable, washable, and extra cosy.
DK Merino Yarn
DK yarn made from merino wool is very popular in garment knitting because it is extra soft and is available in a range of gorgeous colours. Many people who find wool itchy won’t be bothered by merino wool. DK merino yarn is a favourite for sweaters that knit up quickly, squishy hats, or anything that will be worn right against the skin.
