Description
What began as a mix-up at the mill – a skein of Germantown with 3 plies, not 4 – became a yarn that Kelbourne fell in love with and knew they needed. After an additional sample run to perfect the twist, Germantown DK was born. The end result is a beautiful and crisp yarn with stunning stitch definition.
An icon of American craft, Germantown was developed in Philadelphia in the early 1800s. Synonymous with a good-quality worsted yarn, Germantown is 100% grown and manufactured in the USA, with wool from western states, and the yarn is dyed and spun in North Carolina.
Kelbourne is proud to be a part of Germantown’s long history of American crafting.
