Ply Yarns
Ply Yarns
Ply yarns are created by twisting two or more single yarns together, resulting in a stronger and more durable thread. The number of plies can vary, commonly ranging from two to several, depending on the desired thickness and strength. By combining yarns with different colors or textures, ply yarns can also offer unique visual effects. These yarns are widely used in knitting, crocheting, and weaving, providing enhanced resistance to wear and creating a more consistent and even fabric structure.
