BROOKLYN TWEED
By Michele Wang

MATERIALS

Approximately 225 yards of fingering or sport weight wool yarn (see Gauge note below)
1 skein of Brooklyn Tweed Loft (100% American Targhee-Columbia Wool; 275 yards/50g)
Sample shown in "Postcard"

GAUGE

5.5 stitches & 8 rounds = 1" in blocked Stockinette Stitch
Note: Because of Loft's woolen-spun construction, it is able to achieve a Sport Weight gauge without losing fabric integrity. If you are subbing yarn, you will want to use a true Sport Weight wool, as most fingering weight yarns will not be able to achieve a suitable garment fabric at this gauge.

FINISHED DIMENSIONS

43.5" circumference, 5.5" wide; measurements taken from relaxed fabric after blocking

CONSTRUCTION NOTES
