King Cole Cherished DK – 3540 Sunshine

Description

A Reliable, Wash-Easy DK That Keeps Its Shape Project After Project

King Cole Cherished DK is the kind of yarn you’ll reach for when you want results you can trust — whether you’re knitting a cosy cable-knit cardigan for yourself or a textured baby blanket as a heartfelt gift. Its anti-pilling acrylic construction means your finished pieces stay looking neat and tidy, even after plenty of wear and washing.

Smooth, Consistent Acrylic That Knits Up Cleanly

Cherished DK has a smooth, slightly bouncy hand feel that glides easily across your needles, making it a pleasure to work with over longer sessions. The consistent twist gives you crisp stitch definition, so cables, ribbing, and textured stitch patterns all come through clearly. At 4mm needles, it settles into a firm, even fabric that holds its shape well.

A Broad Palette to Suit Every Project and Every Recipient

Cherished DK is offered across a wide spectrum of shades, from soft pastels ideal for baby knits through to rich, saturated tones that suit adult garments beautifully. Whether you’re choosing a gentle neutral for a classic knitted throw or something bolder for a child’s jumper, there’s a colour to match your vision.

Practical, Fuss-Free Care That Suits a Busy Life

As a 100% acrylic yarn, Cherished DK is machine washable at 30°C and can be tumble dried on a low setting — making it a sensible choice for children’s wear, everyday accessories, and anything that’s going to see regular use. The anti-pilling treatment means the fabric surface stays smooth over time, so your hard work continues to look its best long after the knitting is done.
