    Dirty DK 200g

    Soft, sturdy, and ready to handle your next project.

    Dirty DK is the versatile, no-fuss yarn you’ll reach for time and time again. It’s soft, strong, anti-pilling, and OEKO-TEX® certified - so you know it’s been tested for nasties and is safe for sensitive skin. With a generous 400 metres per 200g skein, this DK (8 ply equivalent) weight yarn is perfect for everything from lightweight garments to detailed homewares and accessories.

    It’s centre-pull friendly (because tangled yarn is not the vibe), and plays well with 4mm–5mm hooks and needles - making it ideal for both crochet and knitting projects. Whether you're making something bold, breezy, or snuggly, Dirty DK has your back.

    Great for:

    • Everyday garments and layering pieces

    • Baby clothes and accessories

    • Lightweight blankets

    • Hats, headbands, mitts + more

    • Colour-work and textured stitches

    • Beginner projects or long-haul makes

    • Length: 400 metres

    • Ball weight: 200 grams

    • Recommended hook/needle: 4mm–5mm

    Care Tips:

    • No bleach, no tumble dry, no hot irons

    • Dry flat in the shade

    • Dry cleanable

    A little heads up:
    Colours may vary slightly depending on your screen and the dye lot. For best results (and less dye lot drama), we recommend ordering enough yarn for your whole project. We’ll always do our best to send matching dye lots when you order multiples — but occasionally it’s out of our hands.

    Dirty DK is here for defined stitches, bold colour, and everyday wearability - good vibes only. 🧶✨

    New Fav for Winter Wearables

    I've made several beanies and a cardigan from this yarn now and they have all turned out amazing. Great stitch definition and absolutely no pilling so far. I will say it's a bit closer to a 10ply than a DK weight, but I don't mind it at all! The colours are all gorgeous, especially Peacock, Cotinga and Anemone. Would love to see some more pastels in this range :)

    Delivery was quick and with no issues.
    Dirty dk is lovely not sure what I will use it for yet as I was hoping the green was more of a teal but that was my mistake not source of fibres. Will definitely order again.

    Is a great product but....

    I purchased 23 balls of this amazing acrylic!
    I am very happy with it BUT I am just a bit upset with the green I purchased as in some areas it's unwound it's ply I do understand that this would have happened when it was being wound at the factory and has nothing to do with Source of Fibre themselves.
    It's just annoying as I have to stop and twist it back into its strand.
    I will definitely purchase it again (green included)
    It's great for crochet!

    Dirty DK, the new fave!

    I have been using the colour Cotinga to crochet a jumper, and have received so many compliments on the colour. This yarn has been a joy to work with, I’ve used 3 skeins so far and it truly is a gorgeous colour, it’s soft, holds together well, hasn’t broken or frayed. I LOVE that it’s centre pull friendly!
    Thank you so much Kate, for taking the time to create and test this yarn, the wait was worth it!
