Together they create a wonderfully drapey lustrous blend, with just a dash of woolly bounce.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-ccp-props=\"{}\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"auto\" lang=\"EN-GB\"\u003eIn its DK weight, Devonia is wonderful for cosy sweaters with a little bit of drape and warm cardigans to snuggle up.

It is possible to achieve quite a wide range of gauges with this yarn. A tighter gauge (more sts per cm\/inch) will create a denser fabric and a looser gauge (fewer sts) will create a drapier fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eIf you are substituting yarn for a pattern, we recommend comparing the meterage. If your yarn is within 25 metres of the given yarn per 100g then you should be able to happily get the correct gauge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour Blending:\u003c\/strong\u003e We start with solid coloured tops (aligned fibre) and blend our nuanced, heathered shades using precise recipes. If you look closely at any of our yarns, you’ll see that each heathered shade contains a multitude of colours within it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe entire range is created from a handful of base colours, making it easy to find harmonious colour combos for colourwork projects.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWorsted Spun:\u003c\/strong\u003e All our yarns are worsted spun. This means the fibres are parallel to each other, giving them greater drape, strength and softness than a woollen spun equivalent would. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"auto\"\u003eNon-superwash: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"auto\"\u003eAll our yarns (except for Exmoor Sock) are not superwash-treated. We like to keep things natural! Plus, non-superwash yarns retain the benefits of wool: they keep you warm and cosy, don’t require a lot of washing, and will keep their in shape, due to the natural crimp of wool.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product__description rte quick-add-hidden description-with-spacing\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"visible-description\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv spellcheck=\"false\" id=\"WACViewPanel_ClipboardElement\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"KNiTT","offers":[{"title":"Amber Blaze","offer_id":56771370779002,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bleeding Heart","offer_id":56771370811770,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Burnished Bronze","offer_id":56771370844538,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cinder Glow","offer_id":56771370877306,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dark Skies","offer_id":56771370910074,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Devonia Cream","offer_id":56771370942842,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Furbelows","offer_id":56771370975610,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ocean Rain","offer_id":56771371270522,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pollen Gold","offer_id":56771371303290,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sage Sprig","offer_id":56771371041146,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sandbar","offer_id":56771371073914,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sugar Snap","offer_id":56771371139450,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Wood Smoke","offer_id":56771371172218,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0038\/2058\/5009\/files\/IMG_0987-1_9c7529b1-8fe2-4b7b-86b2-19fd65b74908.webp?v=1775369626","url":"https:\/\/knitt.co.uk\/products\/devonia-dk-by-john-arbon-textiles","provider":"KNiTT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
