King Cole Cottonsmooth DK – 3522 Pale Pink

Description

A crisp, cool cotton DK that’s made for summer knitting

King Cole Cottonsmooth DK gives you the clean stitch definition that cotton does best, making it a brilliant choice when you want your work to look sharp and polished. Whether you’re casting on a relaxed summer top, a textured beach bag, or a lightweight baby blanket, this yarn lets the pattern do the talking.

100% mercerised cotton with a smooth, confident handle

Mercerisation gives the cotton fibres a subtle sheen and a noticeably smoother hand feel than untreated cotton, so it glides through your fingers as you knit. The resulting fabric has a pleasant weight and body — structured enough to hold its shape, yet soft enough to wear against the skin. Stitches sit neatly side by side, so cables, lace, and simple stocking stitch all look equally tidy.

Clean, fresh shades that suit warm-weather projects

The Cottonsmooth DK palette leans into the natural brightness that mercerised cotton carries so well, giving colours a clarity that reads beautifully in finished knitwear. From cool neutrals to bolder seasonal tones, there’s a shade ready for your next warm-weather make.

Practical, breathable, and easy to care for

Cotton is naturally breathable, making this DK a sensible pick for baby garments, summer accessories, and anything worn close to the skin in warmer months. The 200m per 100g ball gives you generous yardage, and the mercerised finish adds a degree of durability that helps the fabric hold up wash after wash.
