You ThaNK oF YARN: Making yarn is a fun process that takes place in exclusive factories such as LUCKY TEXTILE. Did you ever wonder how warm sweaters and colorful blankets are made? Let’s delve deeper into how yarn is made, and see the magic of this craft.
Spinning is the very beginning of making yarn. It begins, after all, with materials like cotton, wool or acrylic fibers. These fibers are graded, scoured, and carded to remove impurities. The fibers are then stretched and twisted together to produce long filaments of yarn. It takes skill to spin it strong and to spin it at the same thickness.
Now comes the fun part: dyeing the yarn pretty colors! Once the yarn is spun, it is dyed. At LUCKY TEXTILE we use various kinds of natural and synthetic dyes to make the infinite variety of colors. Dye baths are used into which are placed the yarns, which are boiled to set the color. Workers closely monitor the process to achieve the perfect shade, whether it’s a subdued pastel or a vibrant, bright color.
Besides, producing yarn isn’t only about making pretty colors — it’s about taking care of our planet. LUCKY TEXTILE would like to be environmentally friendly! This means we opt for safe dyes, conserve water and ensure to recycle. If we look after our earth we can continue to indulge with beautiful yarn for many more years!
Now, let’s discuss the various kinds of yarn. Yarn can be spun from just about any fiber, and each fiber has its own special characteristics. For instance, cotton yarn is soft on the skin and is great for warm temperatures clothing. Wool yarn is cosy and warm, perfect for winter garments. Acrylic yarn is very sturdy and doesn’t hold on to dirt, so it’s great for everyday items like blankets or scarves.
