Discover Tweedy Connemara, the same recycled goodness as , now on a green base! 

Inspired by the beautiful, yet rugged Irish coastline, Connemara is a soft dusty sage colour. 

DK weight, tweed yarn and the coloured bits are Hedgehog Fibre's own hand-dyed waste - the ties that they take off the hand dyed skeins. They save them very diligently and it's a total labor of love! The photo is the current batch. Lovely, little bit more subtle, quieter this time, but gorgeous none the less!

They have been collecting the ties for a while and finally found a mill that could process these, which means re-carding them, blending and spinning into yarn again. It comes in one colorway only and I think it's just calling for sweaters and cardigans.

Hedgehog Fibres is always looking for ways to be more environmentally friendly and to minimize waste. On top of their thread waste they are using recycled wool, making 50% of the total content recycled. I love the result! It's soft, yet wooly. Not superwash and it blooms beautifully after washing.
