Yarn Specific Blog Posts

This blog post is designed as a useful resource for inspiration for a specific yarn. There are projects that use it, and patterns that call for it. It's so handy to have all this in one place!  Just FYI - there are no links to Ravelry here. We've linked to patterns and projects that are available to purchase/view elsewhere. If they're only available on Ravelry we will say that, but not link to it.  Hayton DK like its 4ply counterpart is a beautiful mix of smooth, bouncy merino, a little nylon to make it more hard wearing, and a dash...
