Yarn cotton 14/4 No.67 light cornflower 50g/175m 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 vegetable fibers, it can be noted that the warming effect of cotton is higher than that of flax. Products made of cotton yarn are well suited for the off-season: for spring/autumn hats, summer hats, etc.

When untwisted, it breaks up into component threads. The fibers of the threads are dyed before the start of spinning, which ensures the threads of the highest quality.
