Fonty Super Tweed Aran
SUPER TWEED is one of Fonty’s signature yarns. The Aran weight is a blend of 95% fine merino wool and 5% South African mohair. The yarn is super soft and very warm.
Fonty are very proud of the Aran weight yarn and see it as a truly unique yarn. “ The tweed effect of the yarn is made of 100% natural fibres. Indeed, its coloured flecks are exclusively made of dyed natural wool, unlike the others. The main fibre is dyed in flock, before being transformed into yarn, and the buttons are added to an already pigmented material. This raw material dyeing process rather than yarn pigmentation also makes it possible to create 3 subtly degraded colours for each dyeing pass, by diluting the dyed flock with unbleached flock. This deliberate choice of a more restrictive and complex manufacturing method makes it possible to reduce dyeing operations, and therefore their ecological impact, while guaranteeing consistent colour combinations.’
Yarn is ideal for winter knits and sleeveless tops
