It is a 2 ply (two threads plied together) yarn – each ply is cotton spun over the nylon filament – the nylon filament is not visible and it will dye like 100% cotton.
It is such a pleasure to weave with this yarn. Due to the slight elasticity of the yarn there will beno more saggy shedwhen weaving on a rigid heddle loom!
This is 8/2 yarn, but looks and weaves like 5/2. You can use for your warp or weft or in any combination with other yarns. A great choice for rigid heddle weaving.
