Highland DK is for knitters who love the character of traditional wool but appreciate the convenience of superwash. Spun from 100% Superwash Merino, this yarn has a more rustic, woolly feel than our Marshmallow Select DK. It offers beautiful stitch definition, a slightly grippier texture, and enough structure to make cables, textured stitches, and colorwork really shine. Because the fibers have a bit more tooth, Highland DK helps stranded colorwork stay even and gives finished garments a classic, heirloom look without sacrificing the easy care of superwash wool. Whether you’re knitting a cozy yoke sweater, a timeless cardigan, sturdy mittens, or an everyday hat, Highland DK brings warmth, definition, and character to every stitch.
