Portland, Oregon yarn & knitwear design company Brooklyn Tweed announces a new yarn, Imbue Sport, sourced, spun, and dyed entirely within the United States. An ideal choice for lightweight sweaters and accessories, this soft, springy yarn gives gentle drape to stockinette and subtle definition to textured stitch patterns. Worsted spun from fine American Merino wool, Imbue Sport knits up into lightweight fabrics with a lofty, plush hand. 12 heathered colorways are blended from an assortment of fleece-dyed solid colors, creating richly complex shades that harmonize beautifully in colorwork and stripes. Shop Imbue Sport at BrooklynTweed.com and at local yarn stores around the world starting on April 10, 2024. Visit BrooklynTweed.com for a list of retail stockists and to learn more about their yarns and patterns. Knitting patterns designed for Imbue Sport will be available to purchase in PDF format on BrooklynTweed.com and on Ravelry.com. Brooklyn Tweed invites knitters to share their Imbue Sport projects online with hashtags #BTintheWild and #ImbueSportYarn.
