Yarn BC Garn Tussah Tweed — 250 m

Excellent yardage, exceptionally comfortable in the hottest weather, supple.

None

A very unusual, luxurious yarn! Weightless and exceptionally comfortable to wear on the hottest days. The shades are so beautiful that I want to try them all :)

Yarn BC Garn Tussah Tweed — 250 m

A lovely yarn! Do not expect this silk to feel like a silk pillowcase: its secret and strengths lie elsewhere, in its texture, story and properties.

Several silk threads are spun together to create a wonderful, textured tweed effect!

An amazing colour palette: you cannot take your eyes off it and certainly cannot stop at just one.

Garments made from this yarn are lovely in hot weather: they are fine, absorb moisture and do not feel stuffy.

A yarn that is pleasant to knit with and to wear. I used 6 balls for a top in size 56.

Yarn BC Garn Tussah Tweed — 250 m

Exclusive, interesting texture

None

I bought a couple of skeins for a tank top. What first attracted me was the unusual texture and colouring (mine is Morocco), along with the interesting sheen that seems to come from inside the silk thread. I am not fond of summer yarns, but bought this one without hesitation) The yarn itself is soft but slightly rough because of the flecks. The colour is shown accurately on the website. I think it should be worked as a single strand on fine needles. With two strands it would be too coarse, so this yarn is for people like me who love ‘toothpick’ needles)

Yarn BC Garn Tussah Tweed — 250 m

A beautiful, supple fabric that feels pleasant against the skin, with a subtle, elegant silk sheen.

The price.

I knitted my daughter a top. The Chocolate with Candied Fruit colour is very beautiful. I thought the dark-coloured skeins were silkier and less ‘dishevelled’ )), with more restrained tweed flecks than the light shades.
The size can change after washing and blocking, so be sure to knit and wash a reasonably large swatch.
2.5 mm needles. I used 3 balls for size S.

Yarn BC Garn Tussah Tweed — 250 m

Magnificent yarn! It looks very interesting and unusual in the fabric and is great for boho- or safari-style pieces. I knitted a tunic in stockinette stitch on 2 and 2.5 mm needles. For another garment, I added an inset knitted with two strands of this yarn in knit-and-purl texture patterns. That turned out well too, although rather dense: the beauty of this yarn really is in its drape. After washing and blocking, it stretches noticeably in both length and width, so the result was oversized. Very comfortable and pleasant against the skin, and the fabric drapes beautifully in the finished garment.

Yarn BC Garn Tussah Tweed — 250 m

I knitted a summer top. A very elegant, pleasant material. Both the knitting process and wearing the finished garment are enjoyable. It does stretch a little, so it is better to knit a size smaller than usual.

Yarn BC Garn Tussah Tweed — 250 m

I knitted a summer tank top and a tunic with shorter sleeves. Very economical yarn use, pleasant to work with, and stockinette stitch looks refined and elegant. After washing and blocking, it grows a lot in both length and width, so knitting a swatch is essential.
