Spinning LoftUpdated 6 months ago

Loft refers to the fluffiness and volume of your yarn, which is often determined by your spinning technique. Woolen spun yarns generally have a higher loft because of the trapped air, while worsted yarns are denser. Loft affects how warm and lightweight the yarn is, making it an important factor in choosing yarn for different projects.

Tip: High-loft yarns are perfect for warm, cozy items, while low-loft yarns are better suited for projects that need more durability and less stretch.
