Thick-and-Thin Yarn


Modern novelty yarns include a wide variety of yarns made with different special effects such as slubs, produced by intentionally including small lumps in the yarn structure, yarns with coiled areas of varying dimentions (spiral yarns), or with varying thickness (thick-and-thin yarns) introduced during production. There are also many other types of yarns showing different special effects: snarly, tinsel, tuffle, knop, twist-on-twist, knickerbocker or nepp yarn (a fancy yarn with the randomly placed flecks or spots of differently colored fibers), and other fancies.
