Useful tips: once finished realizing the cloth with our balls of yarn we recommend to put it on a hanger and vaporize it with the iron.
This process makes it possible to uniform the tension between the stitches and the twist turns of the yarn, giving the finished garment a harmonious and compact appearance.
Washing info: hand wash at a maximum temperature of 30° and let dry on flat.
Yarn titling
Yarn Titles: Direct and Indirect Titling
The count of a yarn represents the relationship between length and weight. There are two methods of counting:
Direct Titration (the ratio of weight to length), expressed in:
- Tex
- Decitex
- Ditex
- Den. (Denarii)
Indirect titration (the ratio of length to weight), denoted as:
- Nm (metric number)
- Ne (English number)
Importance of Titration
This mode of measurement is adopted because it is not possible to know the cross-section of a wire precisely; the only measurements available are weight and length. For example, a rubber wire has a different mode of indication, referring to diameter.
Indirect Metric Measurement (Nm)
Indirect Metric (Nm) measurement is used for combed thread. A value of Nm 1/10000 corresponds to 10,000 metres of thread in 1 kg. The higher the count, the thinner the thread.
Conversions
- From Ne a Nm: multiply the value Ne for 0.59
- From Nm a Ne: multiply the value Nm per 1.69
