Description
This article explores how changing the density (the amount of fibers held by twist) and twist of the Corriedale fiber impacts the final yarn. The author sampled the fiber to compare various preparations and densities with different twist amounts, resulting in more than nine different yarns from one fiber. The article shows the results and discusses options for what to do with each resulting yarn.
