Introducing, from Ashford, Yoga Yarn! Yoga Yarn is 35% lighter in weight than the 100% cotton in an equivalent weight. Knit and weave your fabrics, jackets, pull-overs, scarves and shawls, even homewares, which will have the bulk and density you want while still staying light! Ashford's Yoga Yarn has a nylon filament core completely covered by a cotton outer wrap.
Get the best of both worlds: the strength and elasticity of nylon and the natural comfort and beauty of cotton! 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.
Choose 3 complementary or contrasting colors to weave six lovely tea towels.
Requires a rigid heddle loom with a weaving width of at least 16" and a 15-Dent reed.
