Collection: King Cole Dalesway Chunky

King Cole Dalesway Chunky is a chunky-weight yarn from King Cole, giving 138m per ball. It is worked on 6mm needles at a tension of 20 rows and 14 stitches to 10x10cm, so it grows quickly and suits anyone who likes to see a project take shape over a weekend.

At this weight it lends itself to jumpers and cardigans, hats, scarves, cowls and mittens, as well as blankets and cushion covers. The stated tension is a useful starting point, though we always suggest a small swatch first if you tend to knit tightly or loosely.

There are 13 shades in the range, with names drawn from the dales and villages of the north — among them Staveley, Burnsall and Dent. The full range is in stock at our shop in Ledbury, where you are welcome to compare shades in daylight before deciding, and we offer free UK delivery on orders over 50 pounds.
