Rowan Felted Tweed DK Yarn 50g – Alabaster 197 – Merino Wool Alpaca Blend Knitting & Crochet Yarn

ROWAN Felted Tweed – Alabaster (Ref. 197)
Soft, tweedy, and beautifully versatile, ROWAN Felted Tweed is a dream yarn for sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and colorwork. The shade “Alabaster” (197) is a gentle, light neutral with subtle tweedy flecks—perfect on its own or as a calm contrast in Fair Isle and stranded designs.

This light DK yarn knits into a fabric that looks softly “felted” with a delicate halo and rustic charm, yet feels comfortable and refined thanks to its luxurious fiber blend. It blocks beautifully for lace, shows off textured stitches and cables, and gives a lovely drape in simple garter or stockinette.

Whether you’re knitting timeless British-inspired tweed garments or adding delicate accents to modern pieces, Felted Tweed is a staple yarn you’ll return to again and again.
