Erika Knight: Pure Tweed
Nothing embodies the essence of the British Isles quite like tweed yarn. Erika Knight's Pure Tweed lives up to its name, offering pure tweed with genuine British charm and feel: no supplements, no fiber blending, just Pure Tweed.
Pure Tweed is a traditionally woollen-spun tweed yarn in Aran weight. Woollen spinning involves carding the fibres without combing them, which introduces plenty of air into the yarn, giving it a wonderfully airy and voluminous texture. Knitted pieces made from woolen-spun yarn are exceptionally durable and often last a lifetime.

Weight/Yardage: 100 grams = 174 yds / 160m
Gauge/Tension: 16 sts = 4 inches (10 cm) on 5.0-6.0mm
Yarn Weight: Aran
