Yarn Corner: Homespun Prism

Autumn Has Arrived

This week we’re introducing a brand new yarn that has just landed in our shop. Say hello to Homespun Prism DK, your new go-to yarn for the coming season. With a unique blend of quality materials and a range of autumnal colour ways to choose from, let’s take a closer look at Homespun Prism!

The name Homespun might sound familiar to you, and that’s because Prism is just the latest addition to King Cole’s Homespun yarn family. We’ve stocked some of these yarns before as they’re perfect for autumn and beautifully inspired by nature. Homespun Prism DK continues this legacy but brings a fresh new take for makers to enjoy.

What sets this yarn apart is its blend of high quality materials, including 22% Fine Merino Superwash and 22% Alpaca. This makes the yarn super soft and a joy to knit/ crochet with. Considering the excellent materials used to create this yarn, Homespun Prism is also excellent value for money. At just £3.75 per ball ( £3.19 with your subscriber discount!), you can make a beautiful, long lasting garment without the giant price tag.

Another eye-catching quality of this yarn is the stunning shades this range has to offer. There are 6 variegated shades in total, each inspired by nature. The classic, warm autumnal feel Homespun Prisms provides makes it a great choice for next season’s handmade accessories and garments.

Whether you want a neutral blend or a more vibrant mix, there is certainly going to be a shade for you!

King Cole’s Homespun Prism DK will work with any classic double knitting pattern you have in mind. We are also stocking some of the accompanying patterns for this yarn, which are available in store now and will be added to our website soon. If you want to order online before then, simply send us an email at help@babesinthewool.co.uk 😁

Looking at this range has made me super excited for autumn projects, and I think Homespun Prism will be a great choice for accessories like scarves and hats.
