ZHONGDING 70 Cotton 30 Mercerized Australian Wool Cone Yarn

This fine-gauge cone yarn is spun in China using a carefully balanced blend of 70% cotton and 30% 70s mercerized Australian wool, with a refined 2/48Nm count. The result is a yarn that combines cotton’s clean stability with the subtle elasticity and softness of high-quality mercerized wool.

Designed for makers who appreciate controlled structure and understated refinement, this yarn offers a smooth, composed surface with gentle resilience. It performs beautifully in projects where definition, stitch clarity, and comfort are equally important.

As an industrial surplus yarn, it reflects reliable mill-level consistency and thoughtful material engineering, making it well suited for both functional garments and precision textile work.
