What is DK Yarn?

According To The Yarn Council of America Dk 
(Double Knitting) weight yarn is equivalent to 
Light (3) on the Standard yarn Weight System.

Why is it called DK or 
Double Knitting Weight?

This is because it is usually equivalent to 
holding 2 strands of Fingering /Super Fine
 Yarn (1) weight, together.

Some People Say, that DK is thicker than
a light (3) weight, but not as thick as a
medium (4) weight yarn.
But it really depends on the brand of yarn.

Here is a simple yarn weight chart
