Maltweed 2/13 650m/100g (711yds/3.5oz) – 85% Merino Wool, 15% Cashmere

Soft-spun elegance meets timeless tweed — Maltweed 2/13 by Carriaggi blends extra fine merino wool with a touch of cashmere to create a yarn that’s light, warm, and beautifully sophisticated. The tweed flecks are subtle and refined, never overpowering, adding a layer of texture that feels modern and classic all at once.

This yarn elevates simple garments with softness, warmth, and a dry, plush hand. Whether knit solo or held double, it delivers quiet luxury in every stitch — ideal for garments that feel as good as they look.
