Softyak DK has a robust chainette construction, enhanced with a little nylon, that adds springiness and loft for a better knitting experience. It’s also very smooth to the touch, and works up into a fabric with incredible drape. The cotton and yak fibers take dye differently, resulting in a soft melange effect.
This yarn is perfect for those with fibre sensitivities as neither the cotton nor yak will irritate the skin. It’s also naturally anti-static and anti-microbial.
