All about YarnArt yarn

Yarn Art (YarnArt in Turkish) is the name of one of the world's most popular Turkish yarn brands.... The manufacturer has created more than 70 types of threads for hand knitting of various textures and compositions. The palette includes about 1700 colors.

YarnArt yarns are produced only from high quality raw materials, many series have an exclusively natural composition. The factory pays special attention to its little consumers - children. The quality of the threads of "children's" names fully meets the requirements of health preservation and maximum comfort.

Of great interest among creative knitters is collection of fancy yarn, unique in its texture. It has a very unusual texture: it consists of a main thread on which there can be tiny pieces of fabric (usually satin), shiny elements reminiscent of New Year's tinsel, intricate knots and other elements.

YarnArt cotton threads (blended and 100% cotton) are also special in terms of quality characteristics. In many types of yarn, mercerized cotton is used, which has undergone a short-term chemical treatment with caustic soda. This allows you to minimize the disadvantages of cotton, giving the threads additional resistance to fading, making them more durable and hygroscopic. Thanks to this treatment, the knitted fabric has a rich, silky sheen.

A creative design approach using advanced technologies, high quality products at an affordable cost - all this is characteristic of YarnArt yarns.

The knitted products retain their original appearance for a long time, their texture and color palette correspond to the trends of modern fashion.

The composition of the yarn includes various options for raw materials.

• Acrylic... It is fade resistant, durable, hypoallergenic and soft.

• Wool... This is a generalized concept that includes the fibers of various animals (goat, rabbit, llama, alpaca, lincoln). Differs in hygroscopicity - the ability to absorb moisture and easily give it away. It perfectly retains heat, practically does not wrinkle, and gets a little dirty.

• Alpaca - animal wool alpaca. The fiber is light, thin, strong, hypoallergenic, almost does not form pellets.

• Cotton - natural fiber, hygienic, wash-resistant, wear-resistant, perfectly breathable and absorbs moisture.

• Mohair - a diamond blade, which is obtained from the rune of angora goats. Angora is durable, hypoallergenic, lightweight, fluffy. Mohair is very warm, does not fall off or wrinkle.

• Polyester - synthetic fiber, which gives the yarn firmness and elasticity, increases wear resistance, is not afraid of moths, mold, rot.

• Polyamide - synthetic fiber allows the finished product not to stretch, increases its useful life.

• Viscose - synthetics, close in composition to cotton: hygroscopic and breathable. Soft, with a slight sheen, intense color. Gives knitwear a cool feeling.

• Silk, obtained from the silkworm cocoon, gives the yarn a pleasant presentable shine, softness and tenderness.

• Metallic (lurex) Is a decorative element in the form of a thin metallic thread that creates a shine effect.

Many products are labeled with an anti-pilling effect.

The assortment of YarnArt knitting yarns for knitting, according to the composition of the threads, is divided into winter and summer names.

Among the winter products, several are the most popular.

• "Adore" - made of 100% acrylic with anti-pilling effect. The yarn can be used to make both children's and adult things (hats, mittens, snoods, sweaters, cardigans, dresses).

• Alpine maxi - made of wool (40%) and acrylic (60%). This thick semi-woolen yarn produces spectacular, voluminous eco-style items.

• Everest fine - from wool (30%) and acrylic (70%). Has a beautiful sectional coloring (batik). Sweaters, cardigans, shawls, snoods, hats, mittens are knitted from threads.

• Gold - fancy acrylic yarn (92%) and metallic (8%). Very rich in color and suitable for knitting any wardrobe item.

Among the summer, a number of options are in greatest demand for needlewomen.

• Begonia - from mercerized cotton (100%). This plain yarn is ideal for decoration, for making tablecloths, napkins, summer T-shirts, tops, blouses.

• Eco Cotton XL - made of cotton (85%), polyester (15%); Jeans - made of cotton (55%) and acrylic (45%). These series are recommended for the manufacture of both adult and children's summer wardrobe items.

Among the things specially designed for knitting for children are in great demand:

• Baby - from acrylic (100%);

• Dolce baby - from micropolyester (100%);

• Velor - made of micropolyester, imitates velor;

• Breeze - made of polyester (100%).

Certain names are used not only for knitting wardrobe items, but more often they are used for making toys and decor. Most popular:

• Rabbit - fancy polyamide yarn (100%);

• Angora de luxe - from mohair threads (70%) and acrylic (30%).

The feedback from the needlewomen is exactly the opposite: from the laudatory odes of YarnArt to the complete denial of this yarn.

The yarn is praised for its easy sliding of the thread when knitting, pleasant tactile sensations, neat loops, a huge selection of color palette.

They point to the flaws in Macceron yarns, in which skeins of the same series differ both tactilely and in thickness. There are specimens with an ideal thread, but there are different knotty thicknesses: coarse thickenings are 2 times different from the diameter of the main thread. Things related to this series are very difficult.

The Magic Fine yarn also receives negative reviews due to the appearance of spools on the products.

I really like Style yarn for the quality of the thread, for the fact that the knitted things do not stretch and do not push, keeping the tenderness of the knitted canvas.

Needlewomen pay attention to the fact that cloths made of yarn with viscose are stretched and advise to steam the product when knitting.

Pay attention to the color instability of some series. It is recommended to tie a small sample, wash it, and in case of staining, use vinegar when rinsing.

Some negative reviews are due to the fact that novice needlewomen, when starting work, pay attention only to the color and texture of the threads, without thoroughly studying the composition of the yarn and not knowing its specific characteristics.

YarnArt offers a huge selection of yarns, from which you only need to choose the one that suits all your requirements.
