Fonty - excellent tweed - color 13 - wine dregs (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 fiber that gives a shiny appearance and loftiness, SUPER TWEED is a carded yarn with an extraordinary feel.
Within the family of tweeds (yarns with small, intentionally random colored flecks), SUPER TWEED is unique on the market because it is the only one made entirely of natural fibers. Indeed, its colored flecks are exclusively made of naturally dyed wool, unlike others. The main fiber is dyed in loose form before being spun into yarn, and the flecks are added to an already pigmented material. This method of dyeing the raw material rather than dyeing the yarn itself also allows for the creation of three subtly shaded colors 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 harmonious color blends.
SUPER TWEED is a two-ply yarn with medium twist and medium thickness, worked with size 5 needles. Ideal for Irish sweaters, ribbing, and winter accessories, SUPER TWEED is versatile and suitable for all types of projects.
