Any of the DK 8 ply knitting yarns you find at Biggan Design will be perfectly suited for garments to which you wish to give a thicker finish. Sweaters, warm vests, scarves and ponchos will look great yet have the durability needed for repeated wear and washing. Despite this yarn’s heavier composition, the natural characteristics of wool that make it breathable and help wick moisture away from the skin will keep the wearer comfortable.
