Comments about Plymouth Yarn Encore Tweed:
I am adding Encore Tweed to a crocheted jacket I started but needed sleeves and a shawl. This product is perfect, silky to stitch and has beautiful definition. Although light, it adds warmth and style to the design. I love it and will continue using Encore Tweed.

Comments about Plymouth Yarn Encore Tweed:
The Encore Tweed I purchased will be used in a Rambling Rows afghan. It's great for that because it can be machine washed and dried. Some that I already had will be used for the Patterned Kimono Jacket, for me.

Comments about Plymouth Yarn Encore Tweed:
THIS YARN WAS RECOMMENDED TO BE USED WITH A HAT PATTERN. IT KNITTED UP SO WELL MY DAUGHTER GRABBED THE ONES I HAD MADE FOR CHRISTMAS. SHE SOLD THEM FOR ME IN ONE DAY. THE YARN HAS A SOFT FEEL. THE "TWEED" MAKES A SIMPLE PATTERN LOOK MORE "MODERN" OR "CHIC". I REALLY HAVE NO COMPLAINTS.
