Poldale DK is a wonderful mix of Polwarth and Corriedale.

Corriedale wool is popular among fiber artists and crafters of all stripes. Corriedale is a wonderfully bouncy DK or heavier weight yarn. Its medium fiber means that not everyone will be comfortable wearing it directly against skin, but it makes superior outerwear, hat, gloves, rugs, and other housewares. While felters love it for its ability to easily felt, knitters, weaver and crocheters will love it for its grippy-ness; colorwork and weaving done with Corriedale won’t slip around or become loose. Corriedale is a reliable, versatile yarn that is a pleasure to knit. Medium soft with lots of air and elasticity.

Polwarth is an amazingly soft wool and is very comfortable to wear directly against your skin. Polwarth is also a yarn that tends to not pill easily. Knitters and crocheters find that it is lovely to work with, and produces a yarn with good stitch definition.
