Cricket is a single-ply authentic Donegal tweed yarn that knits up lighter than air! Cricket can be knit densely for creating colorwork that really pops, or loosely for an ethereal lightweight fabric for soft, next-to-skin wear. The 415 yard skein is ample, and many projects can be completed in a single skein. Spun at the same mill in Donegal, Ireland as Lucky Tweed, Cricket comes in a range of gorgeous tweed colors, evoking the dramatic Irish landscape.
A traditional sign of good luck, a cricket is a symbol of abundance and vitality, and their cheerful song is a harbinger of good things to come. We couldn’t think of a more auspicious name for the little sister to Lucky Tweed, and hope you love it, too!
