LOVE spinning this roving with all the bits of color carded in.
I waited a long time to buy this fiber. I loved the colors, textures, and the reviews were wonderful. But when I received it, the most predominant color was grey, a color I don't like, so I was disappointed. Still the texture and feel of the wool was so soft and luxurious. I don't really know how to solve the color dilemma.
I got the Don’t Frog Me and the Ewe blue. I am plying a strand of each together and they look great.
Love my fiber! I am spinning these for a weaving project. I am amazed how the yarn colors are created with these fiber blends. Just magical! Thank you!
I got some of this in a monthly fiber club box this Spring, spun it up and fell in love, completely! I had to have MORE! It is just wondetful, FUN to spin. Soft, bright with exciting bits of sari silk nubbies! I plied my first singles with Paradise Fibers black merino RAVEN. WOW!

Our unconventionally delightful twist on tweed combines the lustrous resilience of Superwash Blue Faced Leicester wool with the vibrant sheen of Silk; effortlessly highlighted with streaks of boisterous nepps and silky threads harvested from recycled saris from Nepal. We've added a touch of Faux Cashmere (stretched nylon) in order to elevate these luscious blends to a whole new level of luxury.
Our Sweetheart Tweed Rovings are inspired by the adorably clever wit and dreamy pastel color pallet of the classic conversation heart candies. These rovings practically spin themselves, offering exciting and pleasurable bits and bobs of texture and color as you spin your singles. If you're looking for a fiber that is great for beginner and experienced spinners alike and will hold your attention until the end, look no further. Your finished yarn will have irresistible loft and next to skin softness that boasts drape and extreme huggability.
Details:
Did you know? Tweed is historically known as various shades of wool nepps or noils blended into a solid color of wool. The nepps and noils are leftover from the carding process and are what give texture and interest to the finished yarn/roving. The silk blended into our Sweetheart Tweed has naturally occurring nepps and noils from the carding process. Recycled Sari Silk is produced from leftover mill ends of the Sari Industry in India. Our Tweed is slightly unconventional; combining wool, silk, and nylon to create a roving suitable for lofty yarn with a slight sheen, drape, and memory.
Collect all 8 shades found in our Sweetheart Tweed Collection. Create mini-skeins for colorwork projects, ply two colors together, or spin them along for a truly unique and beautiful yarn suited for warm and cozy knit and crochet garments.
