King Cole Yummy Tweed gives you the warm, characterful look of traditional tweed with none of the scratchiness — making it a brilliant choice when you want rich, tactile results that are genuinely comfortable to wear. Whether you’re casting on a chunky weekend cardigan or a cosy cowl, this yarn brings instant visual interest without any extra effort on your part.
Made from 100% polyester, Yummy Tweed has a soft, squishy handle that knits up with a satisfying plumpness on 6mm needles. The flecked, tweed-effect fibres create natural-looking depth and texture across your fabric, giving even a simple stocking stitch real personality.
The colour palette leans into the heritage feel of traditional tweed — think warm neutrals, heathered tones, and the kind of understated shades that work beautifully for a classic cable-knit jumper or a textured throw. Each ball has a subtly multi-tonal quality that adds dimension as you knit.
As a 100% polyester yarn, Yummy Tweed is durable, holds its shape well after wear, and is straightforward to care for — ideal for everyday accessories and homewares. At 120m per 100g ball, you get a good run of yarn for chunky-weight projects like a tweedy hat, a relaxed-fit cardigan, or a snug hot water bottle cover.
