Rico Design: Summer Tweed Gradient 
(Cotton & Acrylic Blend)

Effortless color, artisan texture, and summer-ready comfort. Rico Design has mastered the art of the "Modern Tweed." This unique yarn features a mesmerizing, slow-shifting gradient intertwined with delicate tweed flecks, creating a fabric that looks like a high-end designer weave.

Lightweight and cool to the touch, it’s the ultimate choice for those airy spring and summer garments that transition perfectly from a sunny afternoon to a breezy evening.

 The Technical Specs

  • Fiber Content: 47% Cotton, 43% Acrylic, 7% Polyamide 3% Viscose

  • Weight/Length: 50g per ball (approx. 185 meters / 202 yards)

  • Recommended Needle/Hook Size: 3.5mm to 4.0mm

  • Style: Colorful gradient with integrated tweed thread.


Why This Yarn Is a Summer Essential:

  1. The "Slow-Burn" Gradient: The colors transition smoothly, creating a professional-looking "Ombré" effect without you ever having to switch balls or weave in extra ends.

  2. Sophisticated Tweed Texture: Unlike rustic winter tweeds, this thread is soft and lightweight. The subtle flecks add a "high-fashion" depth to even the simplest stockinette or garter stitch.

  3. Perfect Hybrid Blend: The cotton keeps it breathable and cool, while the acrylic and polyamide add "memory," ensuring your summer tops and shawls hold their shape and don't sag.

  4. Generous Yardage: At 185m per ball, this yarn is incredibly efficient. You’ll be surprised at how far just a few balls will take you to make one garment. (i.e. 4 balls will knit a skirt, Read here and herefrom our latest make)
