Description

Product information "Rowan Softyak DK - 230 Cream"

Rowan Softyak DK yarn is a smooth chainette yarn made from cotton, yak and nylon, with a subtle heathered effect. The knitted fabric drapes well, making it suitable for jumpers and cardigans.

How does it feel against the skin?

Many knitters find Softyak DK soft and comfortable to wear.

Which seasons is this yarn suitable for?

The blend suits garments for different seasons: cotton is breathable, while the hollow yak fibres trap air.

Will it suit my pattern, and which needles should I use?

Start with 4 mm circular needles. Knitters report good stitch definition, so textured stitches show clearly in the knitted fabric. Compare the DK weight, stitches per 10 cm and needle size specified in your pattern with the yarn specifications; if they differ, try larger or smaller needles.

Before starting, knit and wash your tension square, and check the number of balls against the yarn requirements in the knitting pattern. If your next project calls for a different texture, compare Softyak DK with other Rowan yarns.
