Will it suit my pattern, and what needles do I need?

Yarn BC Garn Tussah Tweed — 250 m
The yarn is fantastic. I enjoyed knitting with it enormously, and once I put it on after washing and blocking, I didn't want to take it off at all! Excellent yarn. It stretches after washing and blocking, which needs to be considered when planning your project. For a size 46 T-shirt, 3 hanks were enough on 3 mm needles. As you knit, you find small bits of debris, twigs and sticks, but removing them is NO PROBLEM. I want more in another colour!!! Definitely!!!! I recommend it! The fabric comes out wonderfully textured!

5 STARS!!! In the new version of the website, I can't select stars on my phone; I've tried many times. Now, about the yarn: oversized, size M, 2.75 and 2.5 mm needles. It took 4.5 hanks. The knitting process is a fairy-tale world that you try to prolong, constantly admiring the fabric. I really didn't want to finish it, so I could work with it every day. The fabric came out incredibly soft and billows in the breeze. From a distance, it really looks as if you're wearing something unreal made of cotton wool, were it not for the delicate sheen. After washing and blocking, the garment stretched slightly as I carried it; I eased it together widthwise on the table, so perhaps that is why it didn't stretch too much. I washed it in cold water. The result: you could admire it forever, just as you could keep working with the yarn. The main thing is not to get hooked on it and keep buying it all the time))))

Very interesting yarn! My first experience knitting with silk. I knitted a T-shirt; I don't knit tightly, so the garment turned out light. It stretches after washing and blocking. A wonderful option for summer.

A striking, unusual yarn. It makes a light, textured fabric. I knitted a T-shirt: soft as a cloud and lovely to the touch. It stretches after washing and blocking, which needs to be allowed for in your calculations.

This yarn was a revelation and overturned my preconceptions. It looks stunning; none of my friends could guess the fibre content. Very comfortable in both hot and cool weather. It wasn't difficult to knit and went quite quickly. I used 2.5 mm needles for the ribbing (you need twisted stitches to stop it stretching) and 3 mm for the main fabric. When calculating your project, make sure to allow for the fabric stretching both lengthwise and widthwise. I highly recommend this yarn and want to buy other colours too.

The yarn is fantastic! The colours are OUT OF THIS WORLD! I bought Mojito and Morocco!! OOOOH, love at first sight!!!! The softest yarn, softer than cashmere! I'll order more when there are discounts)) A size 42 T-shirt, not very long and with short sleeves, took just under 2 hanks.

I've knitted T-shirts with this yarn. Two are finished, and a third is on the way. The garments turn out very interesting and textured, and attract attention. After washing and blocking, the silk transforms, becoming very soft and silky. But do bear in mind that after washing the yarn stretches widthwise and a little lengthwise. The smaller the needles, the less it stretches. I used 2.5 mm needles. A size 42 T-shirt took about 120–130 g. I'll definitely buy Tussah again; you can't remain indifferent to this silk.
