Retro DK is a soft, easy-care superwash merino with colorful Neon Donegal Neps scattered throughout, giving your fabric playful pops of color by day—and an entirely different personality under blacklight.
The neon neps and dye fluoresce under UV/blacklight, making this yarn especially fun for hats, cowls, sweaters, and colorwork where those bright little flecks can really shine. And with 85% superwash merino, it's still a wonderfully wearable, versatile DK for everyday projects.

A note about the glow: Retro DK does not glow in the dark on its own. The neon neps and dye fluoresce when exposed to a blacklight/UV light.
This yarn is even morning stunning in perfect. Im planning on a pair of cool DK socks and I've now order more to make a funky shawl. Highly recommend. Yarn Dragon is awesome!
