Woolen vs. WorstedUpdated 6 months ago

These terms refer to two different styles of yarn preparation and spinning. Woolen spinning involves drafting fibers in a way that traps air, resulting in a light, fluffy yarn that’s perfect for warmth. Worsted spinning, on the other hand, aligns the fibers to create a smoother, denser, and more durable yarn.

Fun Fact: Woolen yarn is fantastic for cozy, lightweight sweaters, while worsted yarn is ideal for items that need durability and stitch definition, like bags or outerwear.
