COTTON TWEED pairs a buttery-soft yarn with a relaxed, rustic look — the best of easy summer comfort and classic tweed charm. Two strands are twisted together: a solid-colour cotton base and a second strand sprinkled with colourful silk tweed nepps. The result is lively, confetti-flecked texture with crisp stitch definition that shines in simple knitting or crochet. Breathable, gentle on the skin, and effortlessly wearable, it turns straightforward stitches into sun-ready fabric.
