Darnie is an earthy tweed but with oodles of refinement! It's perfect for outer garments to keep the winter cold out. Whatever you make from this beautiful yarn will see you through season after season.... a future heirloom. Flecks of colour are dotted throughout the yarn giving beautiful depth to your finished projects. It has a rustic but soft handle, and would be a beautiful substitute for Brooklyn Tweed Loft.
- 4ply/fingering weight
- 100% Lambswool
- 410m / 455yds per 100g skein - washed

- Care: Handwash with love in a quality wool wash and hot water that you're still able to put your hand into, dry flat and watch the yarn bloom!
This yarn is 'in the oil' meaning the final milling process of scouring the spun yarn was bypassed. This process uses an immense amount of water to make the yarn look polished, so leaving it in the oil means that all the water is saved, especially as we repeat the process when you block your finished project. On blocking the yarn blooms, softens and takes on the loveliest appearance. If you don't like the feel you are free to wash the skeins prior to use.
In the oil is also more suitable for machine knitters and handweavers helping lubricate as you work.
Produced in Ireland by Studio Donegal.
