Donegal Tweed

Beloved for Over 50 Years

A beloved favorite among crafters, Tahki Yarns Donegal Tweed is a traditional Irish homespun wool with signature tweedy flecks of color and a lofty finish. Donegal Tweed forges fabrics that bloom beautifully when washed and is wonderful for knitting, crocheting, felting, and weaving. Designed to stand the test of time, Donegal Tweed is supported with a generous palette of rich colors.
