Rowan Felted Tweed

Rowan Felted Tweed – DK Weight Tweed Yarn

Rowan Felted Tweed is one of those yarns that earns its place in every knitter's stash. A light DK-weight blend of 50% merino wool, 25% alpaca, and 25% viscose, it's been slightly felted to create a softly brushed fabric that highlights the tweedy neps woven throughout. The result is a yarn with incredible depth — rustic and characterful, yet refined enough for delicate lace and intricate colorwork alike.

The nature-inspired colorway palette is endlessly wearable, and the drape from the alpaca and viscose makes it a perennial favorite among designers and knitters worldwide.
