DK

A slice of summer, a trace of winter and a hint of luxury – in VAYA we have the best of all we love to knit and crochet, brought together in one ball. Use this light cotton, merino and yak yarn to make the perfect pieces for the changing of the seasons, garments for you to cherish and treasure. We recommend that you work with two balls at a time, alternating every couple of rows to maintain a nice, even distribution of color.

Weight group is derived from measured gauge, not the brand's label — that is why a yarn labelled "aran / worsted" can sit in our Aran group while another brand's "worsted" lands in DK. Library: 1406 yarns · 42 brands · 135 without gauge · 276/1408 gauge rows missing row count.
