Fun, fast & cloud soft best describes aptly named Lang Cloud Tweed. This bulky weight, winter warmer knits up quickly & colorfully on size US 10-10.5 needles. The yarn is created by binding extrafine merino wool in a nylon chainette structure, resulting in a light, airy yarn that has a beautiful halo. Each ball of Cloud Tweed is studded with soft nibs of baby alpaca that give the yarn a dappled effect. When combined with the self-striping nature of the yarn, the finished fabric is reminiscent of a beautiful animal print. Cloud Tweed knits & crochets into cozy, yet lightweight sweaters, cardigans, cowls, hats, mitts & scarves. There is something to delight every fiber artist from the palette of brights & more muted tones.
