Light Worsted

Light Worsted weight yarn strikes the perfect middle ground between sport and worsted weights, offering a balance of drape, softness, and versatility. Slightly finer than standard worsted yarn, it is ideal for lightweight garments, accessories, and home décor projects that still offer warmth without being too heavy. Light Worsted is typically crocheted or knitted on 4mm hooks or needles, creating a beautiful fabric with excellent stitch definition and a smoother finish. Sometimes referred to as DK-plus or a heavier DK weight, this yarn is a favourite among makers who want projects to work up a bit faster than DK while keeping the elegance of a lighter fabric. Whether you’re crafting cosy sweaters, airy shawls, or detailed blankets, Light Worsted weight yarn provides the perfect blend of comfort and style.
