Fonty - superb tweed - colors 01 - off-white (price for 1 ball)

SUPER TWEED is one of Fonty's iconic yarns. Made of 95% fine wool, which provides softness and elasticity, and 5% mohair fibre that gives a shiny appearance and loftiness, SUPER TWEED is a carded yarn with an extraordinary feel.

Within the tweed family (yarns with small deliberately random coloured flecks), SUPER TWEED is unique on the market because it is the only one made entirely of natural fibres. Indeed, its coloured flecks are exclusively made of naturally dyed wool, unlike others. The main fibre is dyed in loose form before being spun into yarn, and the flecks are added to an already pigmented material. This method of dyeing raw material rather than dyeing the yarn allows for the creation of three subtly shaded colours for each dye batch by mixing dyed wool with undyed wool. This deliberate choice of a more demanding manufacturing method reduces dyeing operations and thus their ecological impact, while ensuring coherent colour blends.

SUPER TWEED is a two-ply yarn with medium twist, of medium thickness, which is knitted with size 5 needles. Ideal for Aran sweaters, ribbing, and winter accessories, SUPER TWEED is versatile and suitable for all types of projects.
