A Timeless Woollen Yarn with Character

Our Rustic Tweed 4 Ply yarn brings together the qualities of two favourite Bendigo Woollen Mills yarns – Rustic and Tweed – to create a unique, textured yarn that celebrates traditional craftsmanship. Made from high-quality Australian wool with a dash of tweedy flecks, this yarn brings a natural, timeless feel to your projects.

With subtle heathering  and a rich range of earthy shades, this hand-wash yarn adds texture and depth to your knits, making each piece a one-of-a-kind creation. It’s perfect for those who appreciate the rustic charm of traditional wool textures.

Also available in 8 ply and 10 ply.

Why Choose?

Rustic, Earthy Texture: The untreated wool fibres & fingering twist of this subtly heathered yarn gives it a soft, rustic feel. 

Perfect for Fair Isle: With a 4 ply weight and hand-wash texture, this yarn is perfect for stranded colourwork and steeked projects.

Durable & Practical: Made from hand-washable wool, this yarn is designed for longevity, making it ideal for creating durable garments and accessories.

Earthy, Rich Colours: With a striking range of rich shades, the depth of colour in this top-dyed yarn is unparallelled. 

Tweed Flecks: Each shade includes neps (contrasting fibres that are spun into the yarn) in either earth tones or multi-coloured flecks, adding visual interest and timeless charm.

I use this 4 ply on the tops, toes and heels of my socks. I find it great and so far it seems to wear and wash well. I use contrasting colours or patterned 4 ply as the body of the sock. The big ball, lasts me very well.

Great colour which I will incorporate in a striped jumper together with the silver grey, navy and red 4 ply previously purchased from Bendigo Woollen Mills. Love this place with all the lovely wool, patterns and other accessories. Great that it opens on Sunday in winter too.

I have recently started a colour work Dala Sewater by Elenor Mortensen and I chose this yarn as my main colour. Being a non suoerwash the yarn has a "Toothy" feel that softens and blooms slightly after wet blocking.

I paired it with a nonsuperwash thin sock yarn held together with the BWM Lilt and the combination of the toothy Rustic and fluffy Lilt look and feel Amazing!

I can't wait to finish and see how it looks but I cannot recommend this Rustic Tweed 4ply highly enough.

I've used the Rustic Tweed 8 ply before, and love the way it looks. The colours, the neps, the slightly fluffy twist. It felts a bit, which is great for what I'm using this 4 ply for -- a colourwork cardigan that I'm planning to steek (argh!). It's amazingly soft; I personally like a little bit of a prickle, but I've found the prickliness smoothes out if you handwash with hair conditioner. All in all, this is just a gorgeous yarn for a special garment.
