Inspired by the waters of the Pacific Northwest. Gaia DK is spun from 100% Pima cotton and hand-dyed in colors inspired by the beaches of Puget Sound. Soft, smooth, and breathable, it's a beautiful choice when you want gorgeous color without the warmth of wool. Its DK weight and lovely drape make Gaia especially well suited to warm-weather sweaters and tops, shawls, wraps, baby items, and other projects you'll want to wear and use year-round. And because it's machine washable, it's as practical as it is beautiful.
