02 What’s inside

Cotton, polyester and viscose.

The card prints the fibres, not their shares.

  • Cotton

    Natural fibre from the cotton plant: soft, absorbs moisture and breathes.

  • Polyester

    Synthetic fibre: strong, holds its shape and dries quickly.

  • Viscose

    Made from wood cellulose: soft, drapes well and takes colour richly.

The melange

Fibres dyed before spinning and blended with lighter ones: one colour from a step away, fine flecks up close.

03 How strong it is

How much one yarn holds.

A single ring-spun yarn of Ne 20 typically breaks at about 300 to 600 g, depending on its fibres: polyester raises it, wool lowers it.

How this blend wears

  • Strength
  • Durability
  • Breathability

The breaking load is a typical published figure; the stars are our general guide to these fibres. Neither is a laboratory test of this yarn. A finer yarn breaks at a lower load, a coarser one holds more.
