The Encore Tweed knits up well showing nice detail in cables. The yarn doesn’t split easily either so it is a fast knit. I purchased the yarn through Webs website. It was an easy way to order the yarn and was a fast delivery.

I have been using this tweed yarn for years. The hats have a chic look instead of flat yarn color. It has been easy to knit and washing is simple. I like the beautiful in all colors.
I love this yarn for children's and baby projects. We all know you need to be able to wash it if it's for kids and this washes very nicely. I don't like knitting with acrylic and this has enough wool that makes it much nicer to knit. It comes in a variety of colors too. I have made dozens of baby blankets and have been told many times by moms how much they love it. It was my great nephew's favorite.
Soft, yet works up beautifully and keeps its shape. I found a skein of this yarn in my stash that was approx ten years old. I began searching for more and finally found it. It matches great. Thank you Plymouth Yarns /WEBS! Now I can make a lovely blanket! 💗
This yarn is working up nicely for a bulky winter sweater for a young girl. It could be a little softer but for the value it is a really pretty yarn. The tweedy texture makes it much more interesting than the plain colors.
The Plymouth Encore Tweed that I purchased is a beautiful rich color. I'm going to make a short sleeved garter stitch kimono. The yarn is a machine washable wool blend and I think it will keep me warm and cozy.
a wonderful yarn and easy to work with- made two scarves and they look terrific
Although I prefer working with 100% wool, my family prefers being able to wash and dry their garments without the worry of shrinkage. The Encore has been around for many many years and has outlasted other brands and I will say it has a nice hand when working with it and the color selection is fantastic. Great all around yarn for all types of projects.
Good yarn for sweaters especially good for kid sweaters
Very nice yarn. Easy to order (maybe too easy--I'll buy too much). Quick delivery.
