We are improving, evolving and consuming... Our desire to return to nature and be inspired by nature increases with each passing day, in the amount we improve, evolve and consume.

Technical Textile
Different types of yarns are used in the production of canvas, tarpaulin, medical, military, and technical textiles. The type of yarn used plays a crucial role in determining the end product's quality, durability, and characteristics.
Home Textile
Various types of materials, such as cotton, linen, wool, viscose, and polyester, are used to make yarns for home textiles. Cotton yarns are popular for being breathable, soft, and light. Linen yarns are durable, light, and hygroscopic.
SOCK YARNS
Sock yarns are made from durable fiber blends that offer high-quality elastic properties. They can be made of silk and cotton, and silk becomes easier to use when blended with other yarns.
THE IMPACT OF YARN ON KNITWEAR DESIGN
What are the key elements that affect knitwear design, and which ones are the most important? Choosing the suitable yarn can have a significant impact on the final fabric. Several factors affect yarn suitability, such as yarn type, thickness, color, and content. When using multiple yarn types in a knitwear fabric, the selection of each yarn and its ratio can directly impact the final product’s performance.
