Celebrating Brooklyn Tweed's Arbor!

Brooklyn Tweed has launched their newest yarn, Arbor!Arbor is a new venture for Brooklyn Tweed!  It's worsted spun, meaning the fibers are combed straight and closely aligned before spinning, resulting in yarn that is denser and stronger and has more weight and drape than woolen spun yarns.Because of the way they're spun and the tweediness of their colors, the other Brooklyn Tweed yarns have a rustic look to them while Arbor does not.Arbor is dyed after it's spun, creating 30 colors that have slight differences within their color families.Targhee sheep from Montana and South Dakota give us this finewool yarn, meaning it is in the same softness category as Merino which is generally recognized as the softest of wools.All Brooklyn Tweed yarns are produced totally within the US; Arbor is no exception and is dyed at the only organically certified dyehouse in the country!It's a springy, 3 ply DK weight yarn that will perform magnificently with cables or textured stitches!The colors are best seen in person so come into the shop to see and squeeze this lovely new addition to the Brooklyn Tweed family!
