Benji DK

Benji DK – DK Weight

Benji DK is a soft and versatile DK weight yarn made from 100% Superwash Merino Wool. With its smooth texture, gentle bounce, and excellent stitch definition, this yarn is perfect for sweaters, shawls, hats, and everyday accessories. Its balanced drape and durability make it a favorite for both beginners and seasoned makers.

Each skein is dyed-to-order and hand-dyed in small batches using our signature two-step method: a hand-poured base layered with hand-sprinkled speckles. Available in a range of rich, dimensional colorways, Benji DK brings depth and character to every stitch—whether you love soft tonals or vibrant pops of color.
