King Cole Cottonsmooth DK

King Cole Cottonsmooth DK is a 100% mercerised cotton double knitting yarn that brings a crisp, polished quality to every project you cast on. Each generous 100g ball gives you approximately 200 metres of smooth, subtly sheened yarn that glides beautifully through your fingers — the mercerisation process giving it a noticeably finer hand feel than untreated cotton, along with a lovely natural lustre. Working up on 4mm needles, it produces a structured yet comfortable fabric with wonderfully clean stitch definition, making it equally well suited to cables, lace, and simple stocking stitch. It’s a natural choice for summer tops, lightweight baby garments, beach bags, and warm-weather accessories. Naturally breathable and kind to sensitive skin, it’s also practical — machine washable, durable, and easy to care for wash after wash.
