50 Wool 50 Yak Blend Cone Yarn · 4/15Nm · China
This wool-yak blend yarn pairs the resilience of wool with the exceptional warmth and downy softness of yak fiber, offering a full, quietly lofty handfeel and a soft matte surface. Spun as a four-ply at 4/15Nm, it is substantial yet balanced, making it especially suited to cold-weather knitwear and pieces that value warmth without weight.
The color is a soft light brown — the natural, undyed tone that yak fiber is known for, warm and grounded with a quiet depth. It is especially suitable for timeless winter knitwear, minimal aesthetic designs, and garments built around natural undyed palettes.
As an industrial surplus yarn, this cone provides consistency in spinning quality while maintaining flexibility for creative development. Yak down is one of the warmest and finest natural fibers available, bringing lightness, insulation, and a subtle luxury touch, while the wool content lends structure, elasticity, and durability.

Important Notes
• This yarn is soft and warm, with natural loft and a gentle downy halo
• For best results, swatch before production to test tension and fabric density
• Cone yarn is different from skein yarn and must always be swatched before knitting to evaluate shrinkage and gauge
• Yak-blend yarns may bloom slightly after washing — a gentle wash opens the fiber and brings out its full softness and warmth
• For added structure or drape, it can be combined with silk, nylon, or other stabilizing fibers
• Some cones may be rewound onto empty cones without original mill labels
• May have mild outer dust or storage marks
• Sold as is, without retail packaging
• All yarns are 100% functional with no visible flaws or defects affecting usability
• Please note that cone yarn is wound in an industrial format
• In rare cases, internal breaks may not be visible from the outside of the cone
• Please allow approximately 2%–3% knitting loss, which is standard for cone yarn handling
• In case of yarn breaks, pull away about 10 cm of yarn before rejoining and secure with a small cross-knot to reduce tension and avoid distortion in the knitted fabric
