The Fibre Company Acadia

Acadia is an absolutely beautiful, completely original and custom designed 2-ply yarn with a rustic look and soft hand. A subtle tweed effect created by the silk noil is combined with a heathered base and then overdyed in duotonesr, creating incredible depth of color and texture.  This yarn is a dream to knit with.
