Ginger Felted Tweed 154 – Rowan DK Merino Alpaca Tweed Yarn 50g Skein
Rowan Felted Tweed – Ginger (Ref. 154)
Meet your new favorite yarn for timeless, wearable knits. Rowan Felted Tweed is a light DK-weight yarn with a gently felted, tweedy finish that gives every project a soft, vintage-inspired look. The shade “Ginger” is a warm, fiery rust/orange with subtle flecks that add depth and interest to even the simplest stitches.
With its beautifully balanced blend of merino wool, viscose, and alpaca, this yarn is soft yet slightly rustic, light yet warm, and blocks like a dream. It’s perfect for colorwork, Fair Isle, lace, cables, and simple stocking stitch alike. Whether you’re knitting garments, accessories, or home décor, Felted Tweed creates a drapey, squishable fabric that’s cozy to wear and flattering on the body.
Use it on its own for classic tweed texture, or pair it with a laceweight mohair (like Kidsilk Haze) for an airy, haloed fabric that feels extra luxurious.
