Hedgehog Fibres - Tweedy

Dyed by hand in Cork, Ireland from 50% recycled fiber, Hedgehog Fibres Tweedy features distinctive bright Tweedy flecks from recycled skein ties! .

Tweedy is a new and instantly-beloved yarny concept - a DK blend of 50% non-superwash Falkland wool (which has a natural grey tone), 37.5% recycled wool, and 12.5% thread waste. 

What, you ask, is thread waste? That is all the bits and snips and ends and ties from every other Hedgehog Fibres yarn base! They are collected and then spun up to create the rainbow tweedy nubs you see in this unique yarn. Tweedy has a soft, fuzzy quality with an endless variety of subtle and bold pops of color.
