How to Use Tweed Aran Yarn:
Check your pattern for gauge and recommended needle or hook size — aran typically pairs well with 5–6mm.
Cast on as usual and enjoy the way the tweed flecks add texture without any extra effort.
Works beautifully in classic stitches like moss, basketweave, and cables.
Hand wash gently in cool water and lay flat to dry to keep your piece looking its best.
Store leftover yarn in a cool, dry place — tweed gets better with age.
