Premier® Anti-Pilling DK Colors® Batik is specially designed to create beautiful stripes in a batik print as you knit or crochet. With perfectly coordinated colors in each ball, even simple stitches will produce an eye-catching result. DK Colors Batik is made with Anti-Pilling Acrylic so your project will look Like New, Wash After Wash.™.
Acrylic fiber is widely used for textiles of all kinds: clothing, upholstery, carpets, and of course yarn. Acrylic is strong, lightweight, warm, soft, and resilient making it the yarn of choice for many.
But acrylic has a tendency to form pills – those hard little balls of tangled fibers on the surface of a fabric that make your clothes look worn way too soon. The same fine surface fibers that give the fabric its soft feel clump together and become enmeshed. Pilling is most likely in the areas of a garment that are subject to friction, like sleeve cuffs or under the arms.
Anti-pilling acrylic fiber is specially formulated to resist pilling over time. If and when pills do form, they are removed through the simple process of machine washing your sweater or other project. No picking, no shaving - just toss it in the wash! Sweaters and blankets made with anti-pilling acrylic come out of the laundry looking fresh and new, time after time.

This yarn is so lovely to work with and has a great shine. I recommend it to everyone, light enough for everything baby and also garments for a good drape.

I bought the Rosey Posey colorway, and the colors are accurate to the website’s images. This yarn is SO incredibly soft to the touch and so squeezable. The twist is nice and TIGHT, so it never unravels or splits while crocheting.

I can’t believe I’ve been asleep on Premiers anti-pill acrylic. I figured you tried one they’re all the same, NO not Premier’s! I am completely blown away by the softness and feel of this yarn, I am currently knitting a blanket with the colorway Rosey Posey for my 6th granddaughter due in Oct, I love the feel and drape of this yarn it is working up gorgeously….just a fyi it can be a little splitty (not horrible) so new makers take a little extra care. I had more knitted but another fyi for new makers, don’t knit whilst sleepy or you can be like me and fall asleep with needles in hand and loose a ton of rows! Lol. Hence the small amount done in the photo!
