Yoga Yarn

Yoga yarn is 35% lighter in weight than the 100% cotton in an equivalent weight.

So, knit and weave your fabrics, jackets, pull-overs, scarves, shawls and homewares which will have the bulk and density you want but at the same time staying light!

Ashford Yoga yarn has a nylon filament core completely covered by a cotton outer wrap. Get the best of both worlds: the strength and elasticity of nylons along with the natural comfort and beauty of cotton.

2 ply (two threads plied together) yarn – each ply is cotton spun over the nylon filament – the nylon filament is not visible and it will dye like 100% cotton.

It is such a pleasure to weave with this yarn. Due to the slight elasticity of the yarn there will be no more “saggy shed” when weaving on a rigid heddle loom!

This is Ne 8/2, but looks and weaves like Ne 5/2. You can use it in warp and weft and in any combination with other yarns.

  • Weight/type: 8/2 equivalent
  • Wraps per inch: 28
  • Weaving Sett: 15-20 epi
