Brooklyn Tweed LOFT
- DESCRIPTION
- PATTERN SUGGESTIONS
LOFT is a light and bouncy soft-spun 2-ply fingering weight yarn designed by Brooklyn Tweed. It is 100% american grown wool from Wyoming-grown Targhee-Columbia sheep and spun in the woolen mills of historic Harrisville, New Hampshire. LOFT is designed with a focus on colorwork and lace, with a lightness that mimics handspun yarns.
The woolen-spinning process used to make LOFT yields a highly versatile yarn that can shift into multiple gauges with ease, from dense colorwork at 10 stitches per inch (perfect for warm, stranded mittens) on up to a luscious, lofty sport weight gauge of 6 stitches per inch, without losing fabric integrity. Available in 32 subtly heathered colors, each 50gram skein contains a very generous 275yards! Try it also with SHELTER’s matched palette for interesting textural work.
