Certifications and claims as stated by each brand.

Sport

Inspired by the nomadic tradition of yak herding, the mobile nature and rich history of knitting and crochet, NOMAD encapsulates the spirit of movement and creativity. Just as nomads carry their life around with them, as a knitter or crocheter you can take NOMAD everywhere with you, and create timeless pieces that speak of tradition and adventure. The natural yak fibres give the yarn a characteristic grey-brown undertone, which emphasises the original beauty of the fibre.

Weight group is derived from measured gauge, not the brand's label — that is why a yarn labelled "aran / worsted" can sit in our Aran group while another brand's "worsted" lands in DK. Library: 1484 yarns · 57 brands · 142 without gauge · 344/1490 gauge rows missing row count.
