Studio Donegal Darnie Fingering

Studio Donegal Darnie – 100% Lambswool Fingering Yarn

Darnie is Studio Donegal’s 4-ply fingering weight yarn, spun from 100% lambswool in the small village of Kilcar, County Donegal, Ireland. Lambswool — shorn from young sheep at their first shearing — is exceptionally fine and soft, with a natural elasticity that makes it a pleasure to knit and a joy to wear. Available in a beautiful palette of 14 colors, Darnie is a versatile sock and fingering weight that works equally well for socks, shawls, and lightweight garments.

Like all Studio Donegal yarns, Darnie carries the heritage of Irish craft in every hank — made by hand in a region with centuries of textile tradition.
