King Cole Merino Blend DK Undyed is a wonderfully versatile 100% pure new wool superwash yarn that arrives in a generous 250g ball with a substantial 520 metres to keep your projects flowing with minimal joins. Worked on 4mm needles at a tension of 22 stitches and 28 rows to 10cm, it knits up with beautiful stitch clarity — cables, moss stitch, and simple lace all read crisp and confident. The naturally warm ecru tone is lovely as a finished colour in its own right, yet it also accepts acid dyes evenly and brilliantly, making it a dream base for hand-dyeing projects. Soft enough to wear next to skin, it suits everything from seamless sweaters and cosy cowls to baby blankets and knee socks. Best of all, the superwash treatment means finished makes are fully machine washable, so your hard work stays looking its best for years to come.
