A tweed classic in Superfine Alpaca and Merino Wool
Rustic and elegant
As its name suggests, DROPS Soft Tweed is a soft tweed yarn created from a blend of merino wool, superfine alpaca, and viscose. These fibres are carded together to create the yarn with tiny felted "tweed buttons" that provide colour flecks to define the appearance of this quality. Being a carded yarn means that Soft Tweed is lighter and breathes better than similar, combed yarns - while being specially suited for hand knitting.
