Overview
Katech packages 20 skeins of a 55 percent cotton, 45 percent acrylic DK-weight yarn, one skein per color, aimed at beginners and colorful small projects rather than a single large piece.
Spreading the set across 20 different colors instead of multiple skeins of one shade means it favors small, colorful projects like coasters, amigurumi or granny-square style pieces over a single large blanket, where matching dye lots of one color would matter more.
- 20 skeins, 20 different colors
- 55% cotton, 45% acrylic blend
- DK (light #3) weight yarn
- About 50g and 185 yards per skein
Who it's for
Beginners and colorful small-project crocheters or knitters who want variety over volume suit this best. It is less suited to one large single-color piece, since each color arrives as a single skein.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 20 distinct colors in one set
- Cotton-acrylic blend feels soft and resists pilling
- DK weight suits a wide range of small projects
- One skein per color, not for large single pieces
- No reviews yet on colorfastness or dye consistency
Performance notes
The cotton-acrylic blend is chosen for softness and resistance to pilling, and at DK weight it works with mid-size hooks and needles, sitting between fine cotton thread and bulky yarn in how quickly a project builds up.
