WORSTED YARNS

 HI FRIENDS,

                    HERE AM SHARING SOME INFORMATION ABOUT WORSTED YARNS....


WORSTED YARNS ARE HIGH QUALITY WOOLEN YARNS..

INITIALLY I THOUGHT WORSTED YARNS ARE BAD YARNS (SORRY)...

WORSTED YARN IS USED FOR CARPETS,CLOTHING, HOSIERY,GLOVES AND  

BLAZE..

IN SHORT ITS A MEDIUM SIZE YARN...

THE NAME DERIVED FROM WORSTEAD, A VILLAGE IN NORFOLK(ENGLISH 

COUNTRY).

IN 12TH CENTURY, THAT VILLAGE WITH NORTH WALSHAM AND AYLSHAM , 

FORMED A MANUFACTURING CENTER FOR YARN...

WORSTED WAS MADE FROM THE LONG STAPLE WOOL FROM SHEEP BREEDS...

SHEEP BREEDS SUCH AS TEESWATERS, OLD LEICESTER LONGWOOL AND 

ROMNEY MARSH..

PASTURES WOOL WAS NOT CARDED..... INSTEAD IT WAS WASHED , GRILLED AND 

COMBED, OILED AND FINALLY SPUN....

ALSO A TERM CALLED WORSTED WEIGHT YARNS.

WORSTED WEIGHT YARN SAYS ABOUT THE NUMBER OF HANKS OF YARNS.

THAT IS MEDIUM WEIGHT YARN USED FOR MAKING SWEATERS, HATS, SCARVES,

MITTENS, BLANKETS AND SO ON...

2.5 mm to 3.75 mm 

YARNS COMES IN MANY SIZES AND SHAPES.

WHILE PURCHASING WORSTED YARNS, LOOK FOR THE WORD "WORSTED"......

WORSTED YARNS COME IN A VARIETY OF PLIES... FROM 1 PLY TO 8 PLY..

DEPENDING UPON  PROJECTS, NEEDLES(HOOKS) SIZE DIFFERS..

BEGINNERS CAN CHOOSE YARNS ACCORDING TO THEIR WISH....

WHATEVER THE YARN.... KEEP DOING CROCHET MAKES FUN... KEEP ENJOYING..

        

            THANK YOU.. CATCH YOU SOON... STAY SAFE....
