DK Yakity Yak is such a soft, smooth, round yarn that it is a personal favorite and great for shawls, sweaters, hats, and even socks!. It works up quickly because of the DK weight. The color is rich and deep with a silvery undertone. It also has great stitch definition and shows off textured knits well. It could possibly be the world's most perfect yarn!
The semi-solid colors are kettle-dyed in small batches. This hand-dye process creates a yarn with a slight color variation throughout the skein which gives great visual interest to your project.
We recommend hand washing in warm water and laying flat to dry to ensure the best care for your project.
