DROPS Soft Tweed is a soft and luxurious DK-weight tweed yarn made from a blend of wool, alpaca and viscose. Its subtle tweed effect gives the yarn a distinctive, classic character while maintaining a soft and comfortable feel. Produced in the EU using South American alpaca and wool with viscose from Austria, this yarn combines softness, warmth and gentle drape. It also provides excellent stitch definition, making textured stitches and colourwork particularly attractive. Ideal for knitting and crochet projects such as sweaters, cardigans, scarves and hats, DROPS Soft Tweed creates garments with a timeless, elegant tweed texture and a beautifully understated appearance.
