King Cole Finesse Cotton Silk DK – 2813 English Rose

Description

A Cool, Smooth DK That Makes Summer Knitting a Pleasure

King Cole Finesse Cotton Silk DK is the yarn to reach for when you want a lightweight, breathable fabric with a subtle sheen. The silk content lifts this blend beyond everyday cotton, giving your finished knitting a gentle lustre that catches the light beautifully.

A Natural Blend With a Silky, Fluid Hand

With 77% cotton and 23% silk, this yarn feels smooth and cool against your fingers as you knit, and produces a fabric that drapes rather than clings. Stitch definition is crisp and clean, making it ideal for textured stitch patterns and lightweight summer tops or a delicate lace shawl. It works up evenly on 4mm needles, giving you a consistent, polished result.

Shades That Suit the Season

The colour range leans into soft, wearable tones that suit the natural character of cotton and silk — think fresh neutrals, muted botanicals, and clean brights. Because silk takes dye so well, each shade has depth and a gentle glow rather than a flat finish.

Practical, Breathable and Easy to Wear

Cotton and silk together make a fabric that breathes well and sits comfortably against the skin, so it’s a strong choice for warm-weather projects like a sleeveless summer top or a lightweight baby blanket. The yarn is sturdy enough for everyday wear and holds its shape wash after wash.
