Darnie is Studio Donegal's take on the classic Irish tweed yarn: 100% lambswool with the characteristic tweed flecks that give Donegal yarn its distinctive, storied look. Lambswool is notably softer than standard wool, so despite the rustic appearance it's more comfortable next to skin than many tweeds. The tweed flecks add depth and visual complexity to even simple stitch patterns, and the generous 410m at 100g makes it practical for sweaters and larger projects. Not superwash treated; hand wash and dry flat. For anyone who wants the look and character of traditional Irish knitwear without sacrificing wearability.
