King Cole Big Value Baby DK 50

King Cole Big Value Baby DK 50 is a cheerful, trustworthy 100% acrylic double knitting yarn designed with baby projects firmly in mind. Each 50g ball gives you a generous 145 metres of smooth, evenly spun yarn that works beautifully on 4mm needles, achieving a neat tension of 22 stitches and 28 rows to 10cm. The gentle bounce and lightweight feel make it a joy to knit with across longer sessions, and the crisp stitch definition means cables, stocking stitch, and textured patterns all come up looking their best on tiny cardigans, booties, blankets, and matching hats. The palette spans soft pastels, clean whites, and classic nursery neutrals, with consistent colour across balls so dye-lot matching on bigger projects is a breeze. Best of all, it’s fully machine washable and holds its shape and colour through the rigours of baby life — a sensible, satisfying choice for every precious little knit.
