EMU Treasure Little Isle DK | Baby DK Yarn

If you use soft and very pretty acrylic for your baby knitting or crochet then you will already know that not all yarn is equal. If you are looking for a premium quality, super-soft, 100% acrylic, then EMU Treasure Little Isle DK, is the yarn for you, and at a fabulous price point.

Inspired by the remote beauty of the Scottish Highlands, Little Isle DK celebrates the region’s awe-inspiring scenery, with a collection of shades that cleverly imitate the intricacies of Fair Isle knitting using just one strand.  

Developed for Emu by the experts who have led the way in British baby yarns for more than 30 years, Treasure Little Isle DK is set to become another modern-day classic. Soft to wear and easy-care, it’s fully machine washable at 40 degrees, can be ironed at a low temperature, and can even go in the tumble drier. Perfect for the daily adventures of the little explorers in your life!  

With a hand-selected colour palette, Emu's beautiful baby DK has been designed to appeal to knitters and crocheters looking to take their baby projects to new heights. From shade Balnakeil, with its atmospheric blend of blues and greys, to the picturesque pastels of Sandwood Bay, aptly named after perhaps the most beautiful beach in Britain.  

From soft snuggly blankets, to cardigans, sweaters and hats, this DK, is the baby yarn that has it all! Pick up your favourite DK pattern and transform it into something truly special, with the ease of a plainer project.  

First established in 1941, Emu is an iconic yarn brand with a rich heritage that many knitters and crocheters will remember and love.  Today, 80 years later, the brand is back with its Classic range of DK, Chunky, Super Chunky & Aran with Wool yarn! I have to confess that I was taught to knit and crochet with Emu when my grandmother taught me her skills in the 1960's, she always said using good quality yarn made the project more fun and you made a quality item.

Various studies including Harvard Medical School’s, The Psychologist (Riley and colleagues, 2013), Mayo Clinic 2011 has over time identified the following positive  health physical and mental benefits:

These include lowering blood pressure, helping to reduce depression and anxiety, with potential to slow the onset of dementia.

Crafting can help distract from chronic pain, by providing an opportunity for creativity (at a time of reducing capacity)

Whether working alone, for a charity or as a group, crafting increases the sense of wellbeing by helping to reduce loneliness and isolation and increases sense of usefulness and inclusion in society.
