Available Compositions and Counts

The range includes 100% Bamboo, Bamboo/Cotton 50/50, 100% Modal, Cotton/Modal 50/50, Cotton/Modal Slub 50/50, Cotton/Tencel 50/50, Tencel/Cotton 70/30, Cotton/Viscose 50/50 and Cotton/Viscose Slub 50/50. Yarn counts run from NE 16/1 up to NE 40/1, covering coarser and finer count requirements for different knitted fabric weights. All items are supplied in raw (undyed) colour.

Spinning Method and Properties

These yarns are produced by ring spinning, a method that twists fibres around a rotating spindle to build a compact, evenly structured yarn. Ring spun yarns generally show good strength and a relatively smooth surface compared to open-end spun yarns, which supports consistent knitting performance. The slub variants in the modal/cotton and viscose/cotton blends introduce controlled thickness variation along the yarn for fabrics requiring a textured surface effect. Fibre blends such as bamboo, modal and Tencel are cellulosic fibres often selected for their handfeel and moisture characteristics when combined with cotton in a yarn structure.

Typical End Uses

These compositions and counts are suited to knitted fabric production, including single jersey, interlock and rib constructions used in apparel. Buyers producing t-shirts, underwear, loungewear and similar knitted garments may find these blends relevant depending on fabric weight and handfeel targets.

Frequently Asked Questions

What colours are available in this collection?

All yarns in this collection are supplied in raw (undyed) colour.

What is the difference between ring spun and open-end yarn?

Ring spinning twists fibres progressively around a rotating spindle, generally producing a more compact and even yarn structure compared to open-end spinning, which forms yarn from an air-turbulence rotor process.

Are these yarns suitable for woven fabric?

This collection is developed for knitted fabric applications. Buyers requiring yarn for woven production should refer to our woven yarn collections.
