Hedgehog Fibres Tweedy

On a mission to be more environmentally friendly & minimize waste, Hedgehog Fibres has released Tweedy.  Tweedy is a soft, DK weight yarn with cool, rainbow nubs of color.  The bits are recycled ties from the dying process that have been re-carded, blended & spun into this unique yarn.

The blend of Falkland Merino wool, recycled wool & thread waste comes in one color; a warm grey with colorful speckles.  Ideal for a cardigan, pullover or winter hat & mittens this yarn is simply gorgeous.

Due to the unique recycled nature of Tweedy, quantities have been limited.  We are happy to accept special orders on this yarn if we are out of stock.  Orders will ship from the queue in the order in which they were received.

Artisan hand-dyed yarns have natural color variations from skein to skein. Our team will do their best to choose the best matching skeins for your order. Here are some tips to get the best results when knitting with hand-dyed yarns:

  • Purchase enough yarn for your entire project
  • Alternate skeins by knitting two rows from one skein, then two rows from another skein. This will help to blend color differences.

Please contact our customer service team with any questions or concerns about working with hand-dyed yarns.
