Features of cashmere yarn
The selection of cashmere products determines its softness, lightness, smoothness, warmth and coolness. Cashmere sweaters have undergone special milling and finishing during the processing process. The surface of the sweaters reveals a layer of fine velvet, which feels soft, delicate and slippery by hand. Waxy, full of suede, if the cashmere sweater is worn next to the body, when it comes in contact with the human skin, it will not only have no tingling sensation, but also make the human body feel “soft, soft, light, slippery, waxy, warm and refreshing”.
Classification of cashmere yarn
Cashmere yarn is divided into:
Woolen yarn, worsted yarn and semi-worsted yarn.
Woollen yarn is relatively thick and has a low count. Generally, from 14 to 32 semi-worsted yarns, the yarn is relatively thin and the count is relatively high, generally from 24 to 60.
Worsted yarns are relatively thin and have relatively high counts, generally from 28 to 120.
We usually use cashmere knitting yarn for hand-made needles, which belongs to woollen yarn. Ordinary cashmere sweaters also use woollen yarn. In spring and summer ultra-thin cashmere fashion, worsted cashmere yarn is generally used for T-shirts and cashmere underwear. Semi-worsted cashmere yarn is a new product developed in recent years and is being accepted and tried out by knitting factories, with good results.
