SoulMade Tweed I brings together years of knowledge and skilled craftsmanship. The result is an exceptionally soft, energetic single-ply tweed yarn that shows every stitch beautifully.
Gepard Garn's aim was to make the tweed yarn we had been unable to source: an untwisted single strand offering outstanding comfort and a carefully judged relationship between the base shade and its tweed flecks.
Made from 100% mulesing-free merino wool, SoulMade Tweed I is produced in a family-run Italian mill. Sus Gepard drew on her handspinning experience throughout its development, helping shape a yarn with distinctive movement, vitality and character.
Three ideas guide the yarn’s design: care, comfort and colour:
- care for the fibre and its natural qualities from start to finish,
- comfort while the yarn is on the needles and when the finished piece is worn,
- colour through balanced shades that invite playful, creative combinations.
- A gentle spin and supple tweed flecks give the single-ply merino a cashmere-like result: airy, indulgently soft and remarkably light.
The coordinated range spans calm, earthy tones and clear, saturated colours. Sus Gepard personally chose every base-and-fleck pairing, so the shades work together easily and complement companion yarns.
This versatile yarn blooms noticeably after blocking and performs well across many needle sizes. Choose finer needles for a firm, defined textile, or move to larger needles for a more open, weightless drape. Working at a looser gauge creates a softer, more flowing fabric and reduces the amount of yarn required—an economical way to make a luxurious garment.
Before casting on, knit and wash a swatch to determine the gauge and fabric feel that best suit your project.
