{"product_id":"cotton-tweed","title":"Cotton Tweed","description":"\u003ch2\u003eCOTTON TWEED: characterful tweed for warmer days\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCOTTON TWEED by Lang Yarns brings the distinctive look of tweed to spring and summer knitting. It pairs a notably soft handle with a deliberately rustic appearance, creating fabric with colourful detail and plenty of visual character. This balance is especially appealing when you are planning a garment that will take many hours to complete. Your time deserves a carefully chosen yarn whose feel and appearance suit both the pattern and the way you intend to wear the finished piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA soft touch with lively tweed detail\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe yarn is constructed from two strands twisted together. One is a solid-coloured base strand, while the other carries colourful silk tweed nepps. As the yarn is worked, these small accents appear across the fabric and create movement without requiring a complicated stitch pattern. Simple stocking stitch offers a calm background for the nepps, while a generous swatch will show you how they interact with cables, ribs or other textured stitches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe clearly stated fibre blend is 67% cotton, 24% silk and 9% polyester. Thanks to its buttery-soft feel, COTTON TWEED is an inviting option for summer garments and accessories worn close to the skin. If comfort around the neckline matters to you, place your washed swatch briefly against your neck before beginning the full project. This personal test is a simple way to check that the yarn feels right in the most sensitive area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFor summer sweaters, tops and accessories\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith 130 metres per 50 grams, COTTON TWEED can be considered for lightweight sweaters, tops, cardigans, wraps and other spring or summer projects. It can also add lively flecks to crochet fabric, as the quiet base shade allows the colourful silk nepps to remain visible. The range includes 21 shades, offering options for both understated garments and more colourful statement pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe recommended knitting needle size is 3.5 to 4 mm. The stated tension is 19 stitches and 26 rows over 10 cm. Before casting on a larger garment, make a sufficiently generous tension swatch using the stitch pattern from your chosen design. This lets you assess the fabric, choose between the recommended needle sizes and compare your measurements with the pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWash the swatch as you plan to care for the finished piece, using detergent intended for fine wash, then allow it to settle before measuring it again. This preparation cannot replace following your pattern, but it gives you useful information before you commit many hours to knitting or crochet. Your time is worth more than a small difference in yarn cost, and a thoughtful swatch is one of the best ways to protect that investment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 67% cotton, 24% silk, 9% polyester\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYardage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 130 m per 50 g\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.5 to 4 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTension:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19 stitches and 26 rows to 10 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeason:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spring and summer\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use detergent for fine wash\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 21 shades\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore the 21 shades of COTTON TWEED and choose the colour that will bring soft texture, silk tweed accents and summer character to your next handmade project.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lang Yarns","offers":[{"title":"0001 Blanc","offer_id":53968579133787,"sku":"1178.0001","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0003 Gris Clair","offer_id":53968579166555,"sku":"1178.0003","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0004 Noir","offer_id":53968579199323,"sku":"1178.0004","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0009 Rose","offer_id":53968579232091,"sku":"1178.0009","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0011 Ocre","offer_id":53968579264859,"sku":"1178.0011","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0013 Jaune Baby","offer_id":53968579297627,"sku":"1178.0013","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0016 Vert Clair","offer_id":53968579330395,"sku":"1178.0016","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0018 Vert Foncé","offer_id":53968579363163,"sku":"1178.0018","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0025 Navy","offer_id":53968579395931,"sku":"1178.0025","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0029 Melon","offer_id":53968579428699,"sku":"1178.0029","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0033 Jeans Clair","offer_id":53968579461467,"sku":"1178.0033","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0038 Noisette","offer_id":53968579494235,"sku":"1178.0038","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0044 Lémon","offer_id":53968579527003,"sku":"1178.0044","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0045 Mauve","offer_id":53968579559771,"sku":"1178.0045","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0048 Vieux Rose","offer_id":53968579592539,"sku":"1178.0048","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0064 Bordeaux","offer_id":53968579625307,"sku":"1178.0064","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0068 Marron Foncé","offer_id":53968579658075,"sku":"1178.0068","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0079 Turquoise","offer_id":53968579690843,"sku":"1178.0079","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0088 Pétrol","offer_id":53968579723611,"sku":"1178.0088","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0091 Vert Pastel","offer_id":53968579756379,"sku":"1178.0091","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"0094 Offwhite","offer_id":53968579789147,"sku":"1178.0094","price":9.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/5171\/9003\/files\/1178_0001_LANGYARNS_CottonTweed_1_Print.jpg?v=1788502542","url":"https:\/\/torsades-wools.com\/products\/cotton-tweed","provider":"Torsades","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
