What are the benefits of having more yarn count?

The higher the count, the finer the yarn, the smoother the wool texture, and the higher the relative price, but the fabric count has no necessary relationship with the quality of the fabric. Only fabrics with more than 100 counts can be called “super”. The concept of count is more suitable for worsted spinning, but has little meaning for woollen fabrics. For example, woollen fabrics such as Harris tweed have low counts.

The larger the count, the finer the yarn

The higher the density, the better the water resistance

Because of its high density, high-count fabrics can also be waterproof. Liquids such as red wine, tea, juice, etc. overflow on the clothes. Don’t worry, the liquid will only roll on the fabric without penetrating. This functional The clothes are also a little less careful and more free and easy.

Pursuing ultra-fine yarn is not necessarily a good thing

Yarns that are too thin are extremely difficult to produce and are easy to break. For example, a group in China has produced 300 pieces of fabric, but because the wearability is too poor, they can only be exhibited at fabric fairs, which have no practical value at all. Therefore, in the pursuit of ultra-fine fibers, we must first ensure that the raw materials have superior properties.
