Description
ISAGER TWEED is a single ply and a blend of 70% wool and 30% mohair. This yarn has a slightly irregular, homespun look, yet the mohair fibres give the yarn a remarkable softness and a lovely sheen. Isager Tweed works equally well for both indoor and outdoor garments and with the small flecks in different colours the yarn has a very lively surface. When working a knitting technique with this yarn, e.g. a Structure pattern or a Jacquard pattern in a two or more colored pattern, it can be knitted in the round.
