Sirdar Double Knit 100% Cotton Yarn

When the sun comes out, so does the cotton. Sirdar Cotton DK is a classic double knitting yarn for warm-weather makes, and it’s a favourite for knitters and crocheters who love a crisp, polished finish.

The cotton is mercerised, which gives the yarn a gentle sheen and brings out every stitch. Lace patterns look clean and open, cables stand out, and crochet textures sit beautifully. It’s a great choice for summer tops, lightweight cardigans, baby garments, homeware and amigurumi.

The shades are inspired by summer holidays, from soft seaside pastels to sunny brights and easy-to-wear neutrals. You’ll find a colour for anything from a breezy tee to a bright beach bag.

It’s a true DK weight, so it works with all of Sirdar’s DK patterns and with most other DK patterns you have. It’s machine washable too, so your finished pieces are easy to care for and ready for plenty of wear.
