Ply refers to the number of strands a yarn is composed of. The term ply is misleading. Some people assume that the more plys a yarn has, the thicker it is. Not true. Some bulky yarns have only 2 plys and some multi-ply yarns are as thin as baby/fingering weight. It is better to look for yarn in terms of weight such as baby, sport, worsted, bulky, super-bulky. These refer to the thickness. This is also how most yarns are labeled.
Any reference to thread count (TC) refers to the commonly accepted commercial definition of the number of yarns per square inch including 2 ply yarns for obtaining total thread count. It is not a reference to the âtechnicalâ definition as promulgated by ASTM Standard D 3775 which considers 2 or more ply yarns as one thread or end. Applying D 3775 to multiple ply yarns will result in a lower technical thread count than the commercial definition. Â© 2017 Wonderhome srl All Rights Reserved.
