Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the yarn also suitable for warp and weft?
Yes, due to its strength and even spinning, the yarn is ideally suited for both the warp and the weft.

The color transitions are created automatically through the space-dyed dyeing process. Depending on the weave and width of the woven piece, stripes, waves, or soft color patches are produced.
