King Cole Toastie – 5999 Rust

Description

Chunky, Cosy Texture That Knits Up Fast on 8mm Needles

King Cole Toastie is a novelty yarn designed for quick, satisfying makes with real visual warmth — perfect for a chunky cowl, a snuggly hot water bottle cover, or a textured cushion cover that looks far more involved than it was to create. Working on 8mm needles, you’ll see your project take shape in just a few sittings, which makes it a brilliant choice when you want results without a lengthy commitment.

Soft Synthetic Texture With a Fluffy, Tactile Finish

Made from 100% polyester, Toastie has a soft, lofty feel that mimics the cosiness of a fleece — light to hold, with a gentle fluffiness that adds body to every stitch. Because of its novelty construction, stitch definition takes a back seat to texture here, so it’s ideally suited to simpler stitch patterns and straightforward shaping rather than intricate cables or lace.

Rich, Warming Tones for Cosy Home Makes

Toastie comes in a palette of warming, earthy shades alongside brighter options — the kind of colours that sit naturally alongside blankets and soft furnishings. Each 200g ball gives you a generous 100m to work with, meaning fewer joins and a tidier finish on larger projects.

Practical, Fuss-Free Care for Everyday Use

As a 100% polyester yarn, Toastie is durable and holds its shape well after washing — just machine wash at 30°C, dry flat, and keep away from the iron and tumble dryer. That straightforward care routine makes it a sensible pick for homewares and gifts that need to stand up to regular use.
