This is a lovely yarn; it has the same crisp twist of our DK 115 (type 49204B). It is a soft, but robust yarn with a great stitch definition. The yarn takes the dye really well and speckles like a dream, a great paring to the DK.
The fabric is pill resistant and great for children’s clothing. We used 5mm needle for this and it has a nice drape, but you could go down to a 4mm for a tighter gauge.
