IMPORTANT YARN NOTE: Please be aware that Rowan has discontinued Rowan Fine Tweed yarn. As an excellent alternative, you can substitute with the following colors in SPINDRIFT from Jamieson’s of Shetland: A. Birch 252, B. Moss 147, and C. Camel 141. Since the yardage for SPINDRIFT is slightly higher, you'll require about 2 fewer balls of the main color (A). Please refer to the yarn amounts listed above for the remaining colors.
