Wikipedia

  1. spun yarn

    Yarn is a long continuous length of interlocked fibres, used in sewing, crocheting, knitting, weaving, embroidery, ropemaking, and the production of textiles. Thread is a type of yarn intended for sewing by hand or machine. Modern manufactured sewing threads may be finished with wax or other lubricants to withstand the stresses involved in sewing. Embroidery threads are yarns specifically designed for needlework. Yarn can be made of a number of natural or synthetic materials, and comes in a variety of colors and thicknesses (referred to as "weights"). Although yarn may be dyed different colours, most yarns are solid coloured with a uniform hue.

  1. spun yarn

    Spun yarn refers to a type of yarn that is produced by twisting together staple fibers of any material, such as wool, cotton, or synthetic fibers. This method gives the yarn strength, elasticity, durability, and shape. It is the most common type of yarn used in textile manufacturing and can be used for knitting, weaving, and sewing. The degree of twist determines many of the yarn's characteristics, such as strength, smoothness, and appearance.
