Dyed-to-order sweater quantities - Oakworth DK (100% NZ polwarth) hand dyed to order

Get a sweater quantity of the yarn you want!

This listing is for Oakworth DK, our versatile and hard wearing hand dyed Polwarth DK weight yarn, dyed to order in the quantity and colourway(s) you request - designed so that you can get sweater quantities (or more). We will dye this to order for you so that you have all one dyelot; we aim to ship the yarn within two to three weeks of your order being placed. If you order pre-order yarn with yarn that is in stock we will ship all items together once the pre-order yarn is ready.

Scroll through the images for examples of the colourways, some images are still to be added. As with all hand dyed yarns, colourways may vary a little between dyelots.

Polwarth is a breed of sheep with a long, soft, fine fleece, which is the result of cross breeding merino with Lincoln sheep (developed in Australia during 1880). This yarn is a nice firm, crisp, bouncy yarn, which has great stitch definition and is next-to-skin soft.

We recommend that you wash dark colours separately or wash a swatch before using dark and light colours together.

As with all hand dyed yarns, I would recommend that you use two skeins at a time, alternating from each one every couple of rows/rounds (unless it's a one-skein project).
