About the Haworth Tweed Colour Blocked Knitting Pattern 10698
Create this cosy ribbed sweater with Sirdar Haworth Tweed. It has a crew neck, is knitted in a 2 x 2 rib throughout with set in sleeves for a closer fit. Or use another double knit yarn with a tension of 28 rows x 22 stitches to 10cm. When substituting yarn do take meterage into account as this yarn has a whopping 165m per 50g.
The construction is a traditional one, knitting a back, front and sleeves and sewing them together. I always find mattress stitch the best way to sew up my garments.
The beautiful tweed-like knitted fabric of this softly rustic merino blend has Sirdars Yorkshire home at heart. The richly nepped shades give a rustic texture to plain knits and add interest to textured stitches. Woollen spun, this yarn is more voluminous and offers greater meterage for beautiful more affordable knits.
I do not stock this yarn at the moment but if the demand is there I can review this.
Colours used, A shade 908 Bronte Bronze,
