Robin DK Double Knit Yarn – Sweetpea / Apricot (147) – 100g Ball

Add a soft, sun-kissed glow to your next project with the delightful "Sweetpea" shade of Robin DK.

Robin DK Sweetpea (Shade 147) is a stunning, warm apricot tone that sits perfectly between a soft peach and a muted orange. This cheerful yet sophisticated shade is a favorite for those looking to move away from traditional pastels while maintaining a gentle, approachable palette. Crafted from 100% premium acrylic, it offers the signature Robin softness and durability that British makers have trusted for decades.

This yarn is a dream to work with, offering a smooth finish that makes every stitch—from basic garter to intricate textures—stand out with clarity. It is the ideal choice for boutique baby wear, vibrant spring cardigans, and cozy home accessories that need a touch of warmth.

Product Technical Details:

• Premium British Finish: As a staple in the Robin collection, Sweetpea offers a consistent, high-quality handle that is soft against the skin and easy on the needles.

• Easy-Care Reliability: Fully machine washable and tumble-dry friendly (cool setting), making it a practical choice for items that will be loved and used daily.

• Warm Apricot Hue: This versatile "Sweetpea" shade works beautifully as a standalone color for summer knits or as a warm accent in multi-colored crochet blankets.

• Excellent Yardage: Each 100g ball provides approximately 300m of yarn, giving you plenty of length for your garment and accessory patterns.

Pro Tips for Best Results:

• Fresh Color Palettes: For a modern, botanical look, pair Sweetpea with a soft sage green or Cream. For a bold, sunset-inspired design, layer it with deep pinks and yellows.

• The Perfect Baby Gift: This soft apricot tone is a gender-neutral favorite for modern nursery items, offering a fresh alternative to traditional lemons or whites.

• Consistent Tension: Use 4mm needles or a 4mm crochet hook to achieve the standard 22 sts / 28 rows tension square for a professional fit.
