Sirdar 100% mercerised cotton DK. This has to be very high on my personal list of favourite crochet yarns.... it is just fabulous darlings! simply gliding off the hook or needles creating a super defined stitch for almost anything you might fancy - throws, cushions, homewares, bags, ladies and children’s garments. In fact, I would go as far as saying “it’s practically perfect in almost every-way”

Smooth DK - One of our favourite yarns from king Cole. It has a subtle shimmer that is soft and has a fabulous drape Lots of shades have gradually been discontinued😱. This year 😁 KC have added 2 new shades - petrol and cyclamen, both beautiful bold colours. Smooth is 💯% acrylic making it easily suitable for ladies and children’s summer makes along side flowing throws and shawls.
