Beautifully soft yarn that knits up wonderfully. It holds its form easily and the yarn stays intact.
By The Yarn Collective
Bloomsbury DK is a beautiful silky soft DK weight yarn, spun from the softest merino wool. This hand-dyed yarn is perfect for knitting cosy sweaters and scarves and will knit to any DK weight pattern. Bloomsbury has a wonderfully soft handle that is luxuriously gentle on the skin, and suitable for all types of knitting and crochet. The final spun thread has been plied together with just enough twist to prevent pilling but to allow the fabric to softly drape.
The 10 launch colours have been personally designed by Irish designer Carol Feller. Known for designing knitwear that is well shaped, flattering to wear and enjoyable to knit Carol likes to work with different construction methods, so long as they enhance the knitting experience. Carol has divided the palette into three sets of colours that work well together and enhance each other: Blues, Fall and Fuchsia.

love the smooth texture and the slightly varigated shadings - knit a cabled baby jacket - gave a perfect tension on a #4mm kneedle!
Lovely soft yarn with attractive colour gradient. I'm making a Celtic Myths wrap and the colours really enhance the cable portion.
This is the second Bloomsbury DK that I have used and it knits beautifully. I have made a jumper and am currently making a shawl.
The tonal colors are gorgeous! The yarn is soft and easy to work with!
The tonal colors are gorgeous! The yarn is soft and a delight to work with!
This is beautiful yarn and the colours are wonderful. I knitted a throw, using this wool, last year and liked it so much I ordered more for another one.
I am satisfied with my purchase. The yarn is of good quality and works up well. I would purchase it again. It has a soft feel and is comfortable as a garment piece . Its light weight texture gives the finished product a delicate and smooth appearance.
Excellent wool which knits well.
