Lang Cashmere Tweed, made in Italy

Cashmere Tweed is the softest tweed we ever met. This yarn is designed as a twist of loosely spun merino wool and a strand of cashmere, both dyed in a similar colour, which make this yarn mottled as well. Cashmere Tweed is 2-plied, feather-weight, lofty, and comes in soft, warm colours contrasting with the bright garnetted flecks. It is suitable for any hand knitting projects: sweaters, cardigans, wraps, accessories, men's and baby knitwear.
