That's a lot of time to waste on something that doesn't fit! Worsted is thicker than DK. Worsted is sometimes known as 10 ply yarn, while DK is referred to as 8 ply.
These terms aren't totally accurate the number of plies a yarn contains varies according to the spinner - something that can get quite technical. They're good to keep in mind, though, as they give you a general idea of yarn weight. Although DK is lighter than worsted, they are both considered to be medium weight yarns, and they're often used for the same kind of projects. You might be able to substitute one for the other, but always knit a gauge swatch first.
The term ply can be quite confusing. That's because we use it in two different ways. First, ply can refer to the weight of a yarn. Secondly, it's used to define how yarn is spun. We've already talked about yarn weight, so you know that worsted is also known as 10 ply. In spinning terms, though, worsted can have any ply count!
For spinners, a ply is a single strand of yarn. Look closely at the yarn you're using: you might see several fibres wrapped around each other. These are plies. Generally, a higher ply count suggests that a yarn will be longer-lasting and less likely to pill. Single-ply yarns can be very attractive, but they're usually best for garments like scarves, shawls or cowls; use one for a jumper and it may start to pill very quickly.
Yarns with four or more plies are a better choice for making garments that will last. Worsted refers to a yarn weight, not a fibre. In fact, you can find worsted yarns of pretty much every fibre , including blends. For new knitters working from a pattern, it's usually a good idea to stick close to the suggested yarn. If you substitute cotton for wool, you might find that your finished project is very different from what you expected.
