Brooklyn Tweed
Brooklyn Tweed is an American yarn brand that has gained a reputation for its artisanal approach to yarn production. Founded in 2005 and based in Portland, Oregon, Brooklyn Tweed is known for its commitment to quality, sustainability, and supporting domestic textile manufacturing. Brooklyn Tweed focuses on producing breed-specific yarns sourced from American wool. They work closely with ranchers, mills, and dyers to ensure the highest standards of fiber quality and processing. The brand's yarns often feature breeds such as Targhee-Columbia, Rambouillet, and Cormo, known for their softness, loft, and natural resilience.
One of the distinguishing features of Brooklyn Tweed is their focus on creating yarns suitable for handknitting and intricate stitch patterns. Their yarn lines have excellent stitch definition, making them ideal for textured knits, cables, and colorwork projects. Brooklyn Tweed offers a range of yarn weights, from lace and fingering to worsted and bulky. Their color palette is carefully curated, featuring a mix of timeless neutrals and vibrant, contemporary shades. Crafters appreciate the depth and richness of their color offerings, which complement their classic and modern pattern collections.
