yarns spun for weaving
These yarns are spun from the best Mongolian fibre, mostly by Johnstons of Elgin, originally for weaving, typically into those gorgeous cashmere fabrics that only get softer with age and wear. For this reason they are tight spun, which means they are stronger and wear better than softer spun yarns but of course not as soft and fluffy (they are for the weft naturally, the softer bit). The singles have an unbalanced twistiness that can be a challenge to a knitter, though a challenge that can be worked around, the 2/28 lace weights are of course balanced and these two ply yarns tend to be more open and softer. They bloom mostly with wear, not much on initial washing. For hand weavers, superb yarns, but the gorgeous heathered colors on most also make them worthwhile for knitters to try..... the thicker yarns also sometimes have a softer slubby structure..
Although we have listed this in weaving yarns as that was its original purpose it is actually quite soft spun. It comes direct from Johnstons of Elgin. We will twist up multiple plies of this yarn to give a roughly balanced thicker yarn, for free (twisting of already plied yarns, such as 2/28NM, costs $5 per cone).
of course just because this yarn was made for weaving doesn't mean it isn't still great for knitting, especially when twisted up thicker...
