Suitable for spinning with either a drop spindle or a spinning wheel, this luxurious Chocolate Brown 100% Yak fiber is a dream to work with! Yak fiber is highly prized for its exceptional qualities. It is remarkably soft, often compared to cashmere, which makes it a luxurious material for spinning into yarn. The fibers are fine and have a diameter typically between 16-20 microns, which contributes to its smooth texture and warmth. Yak fiber also possesses excellent insulating properties, providing substantial warmth without significant weight. Additionally, it has natural moisture-wicking abilities, which help keep the wearer dry and comfortable. When spun, yak fiber yields a durable, resilient yarn that resists pilling and retains its shape, making it an excellent choice for high-quality pieces and woven fabrics.
