The ever popular 4ply weight yarn is perfect for fine knits like baby garments, shawls, fair isle garments, socks and accessories.

On a little baby the finer 4ply looks perfect with DK sometimes being a little bulky. Great for spring and summer hence using it for shawls.

Recommended needles size used for sock knitting in 4ply is 2.25mm - 2.75mm but for baby garments 3mm - 3.25mm
