Rowan Felted Woolen Cloth

When wool breathes history, knitting becomes culture.

Some yarns carry an entire heritage within them – from the hills of Britain to the hands of those who create warmth not only but also shape it. Felted Tweed by Rowan is one of these yarns. It unites tradition, spirit of the times, and craftsmanship in every single fibre – a yarn with character that remains uniquely modern.
50% wool, 25% viscose, 25% alpaca – a blend that weaves contrasts into harmony. The wool brings structure and durability, the alpaca its soft liveliness, the viscose a fine, silky sheen. Together they create stitches that tell stories: of harsh weather, of colours shimmering like island light, and of the inimitable feeling of true handiwork.

Felted Tweed is more than a tweed. It is British heritage in yarn form. Its lightly felted surface, typical colourful speckles, and subtle softness create a fabric that is both rustic and elegant. Ideal for Fair Isle patterns, Aran braids, or simple textures that shine through its depth and liveliness. When knitting, everything merges into a fine, breathable fabric – warm yet light, sturdy yet graceful.

Each shade carries the character of the landscape it comes from – from moss green to mist grey, from heath blue to rust red. Kaffe Fassett and Dee Hardwicke have created their own colour worlds that give this yarn even more soul. Thus, every project becomes a piece of design history, every finished garment an expression of style and individuality.

Whether sweater, scarf, or jacket – Felted Tweed accompanies you without pushing itself forward. It gives structure, drapes smoothly, remains shape-stable, and tells with every movement of time, patience, and beauty. A yarn that grows with you – and continually inspires you anew.

Rowan Felted Tweed – where colour, feeling, and history form a unity.
