Weight: DK Weight
Gauge: 5.5 sts = 1" on #5 needles (3.75mm)
Amount: 123 yards/50 gram ball
Care: Machine Washable/Tumble Dry Low
Swish is the superwash of knitters’ dreams! By selecting high grade Merino wool (20.5 microns), we have been able to produce a machine washable yarn that is super soft - definitely worthy of being worn against a baby's skin. Just the ticket for children’s clothes, afghans, charity knitting and gift knitting. No need to worry about the care your knitting will receive since this yarn can be machine washed and dried and will come out even softer than before! The DK weight is ideal for color work and Fair Isle, making warm and colorful hats, mittens, pullovers, even baby bootees.
Note: For best machine wash results, turn the garment inside out and wash in cold water on a delicate cycle.
"Swish DK is a great alternative to heavier yarns for when I want to look nice but not get too hot. It knits up fairly quickly to a super soft fabric, and the color choices run the gamut from brights to basics to heathers. The machine washability means that the garments I knit will actually be worn and washed, and my forgetful husband won’t accidentally shrink my favorite sweater (again)."

"My order arrived and I am very pleased. It IS soft enough for a baby and the colors are beautiful. And I don't have to worry about someone being afraid to wear it for fear of washing it. Thank you so much, I can't wait to knit it up!" Julie N., Knit Picks customer
