Felted Tweed

There hasn't been much knitting the past few days. Last night I had a 9pm conference call and was on the phone until 10:30. I'm hoping tonight there will be some time to sit and knit. It's definitely knitting weather. I don't mind the cooler weather but I think that the rain can stop now. Most of my shoes aren't meant for walking in the rain.

Rowan Felted Tweed. One of Rowan's all time best selling yarns.

Felted* Tweed DK is a wonderful, tweedy yarn with a felted look, is a beautiful blend of merino wool, alpaca and viscose. The rustic colour palette makes this yarn perfect for fairisles, striping and other colour work. A firm favourite with our designers.*Please note, this is a lightly pre-felted yarn that knits to a lightweight fabric with a felted effect. Please follow care instructions, as the yarn may felt further if washed incorrectly
