PlyingUpdated 6 months ago

Ever wondered how to get a yarn that's thicker and more durable? That’s where plying comes in. Plying is the process of twisting two or more singles (individual spun strands) together. It makes the yarn stronger and can add beautiful texture and depth to the final product. You can even mix fibers or colors in different singles to create unique, one-of-a-kind yarn.

Pro Tip: Ply your singles in the opposite direction of your initial spin to balance out the twist and avoid yarn that curls up on itself.
