Yarn cotton 10/9 tomato 100g/110m TM Yaroslav

Cotton yarn is a natural fiber of plant origin. Cotton is stronger than wool, although less strong than linen or silk. Comparing it with other plant fibers, it can be noted that the warming effect of cotton is higher than that of linen. Products made of cotton yarn are well suited for the off-season: for spring/autumn hats, summer panama hats, etc.

In terms of fiber composition, a thread made of fibers of the same type is homogeneous. In terms of its structure, the thread is twisted, that is, it is formed on twisting machines by twisting two threads. When untwisted, it breaks down into component threads. The yarn fibers are dyed before spinning begins, which ensures the highest quality of the yarn.
