Why DK is the go-to weight

Double knit sits in the middle of the yarn range: light enough for tops and baby clothes, sturdy enough for blankets and toys. Most DK crochet patterns use a 3.5mm to 4.5mm hook, and stitch definition stays neat without the fabric turning stiff.

What to make with DK yarn

  • Amigurumi worked on a smaller hook for a firm, stuffing-proof fabric.
  • Blankets and granny squares, where DK gives good drape.
  • Cardigans, tops and baby sets in cotton or superwash wool.
