H I 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...
