Yarn Corner: Hayfield Bonus DK

New Shades Have Arrived!

This week we’re revisiting a classic yarn staple for many makers: Hayfield Bonus DK. New shades for this range have just arrived so it seemed like a good time for a feature. Plus, Bonus DK is great all year round, and it may come in handy for your autumn garments, accessories and blankets. Let’s take a closer look!

For many of our customers, Sirdar’s Bonus DK is the number 1 go-to yarn. It’s versatile, high quality, and comes in an endless amount of colours. This range of classic double knitting yarn takes up quite a bit of space in our yarn shop, and is something we always have in stock. We currently have over 20 shades available.

4 new neon shades have just arrived so this range is looking really bright and beautiful at the moment! These colours will be available on our website from tomorrow morning (September 14th), and your premium subscriber discount will include these brand new shades.

For an acrylic yarn, Bonus DK is very soft and smooth, which makes it very good value. The yarn comes in 100g balls and goes a long way; even larger projects can only require a few balls.

Bonus DK is ideal for garments and will work with any standard double knitting pattern you have in mind. We also have some patterns on our website that specifically accompany this yarn if you need any inspiration!

I’ve used Bonus DK for several of my projects over the years, and I always have some in my stash as it comes in handy. Here are a few of my Bonus DK makes:
