Blended with silk for strength, Oh Dang! DK adds a fluffy halo to what you are stitching. A great alternative to those who are sensitive to Mohair but still want to get the feathery texture in your knits. Oh Dang! DK does differ from the fingering/lace weight version, with more Alpaca and less silk. It also is spun up a bit more like a boucle yarn which makes for an entertaining knit!
