Ashford Yoga Yarn is approximately 35% lighter than equivalent-weight 100% cotton yarn, making it an excellent choice for projects that need body and coverage without unnecessary weight.
Especially popular with rigid heddle weavers, Ashford Yoga Yarn has a slight elasticity that helps reduce the frustrating “saggy shed” that can occur during weaving. Use it as warp, weft, or combine it with other yarns to create beautiful textures and color combinations.
