"This 'tweed to knit' is close to my heart. Speckled tweed was born in Donegal, the genius of a hand spinner who didn't like discarding the tougher fleece neps and instead experimented with adding them randomly in. There's a true Donegal character here that is just the right balance of soft and tough" Edel Weight Aran 100 grams Yardage 170 metres (190yards)  Needles Size 5mm or 4.5 mm for firmer knit (US 7 or 8 ) Gauge in Stockinette on 5 mm 18 sts and 24 rows for 4ins (10cm) square  All dyes conform with EU REACH standards and all fleece is ethically sourced Care As our wool knitwear, See "how to care for me" details below Lead time Ships week of order
