Yarns & Warp Yarns for Weaving
A selection of yarns and warp yarns suitable for weaving on rigid heddle and floor looms. While many of our yarns can be used for weaving, the yarns in this section are specifically designed for reliable warp and weaving performance.
For creative textile work using fibre, please visit our Fibre section and select the Use_Weaving filter.
Flexible Wollschnur mit natürlichem Sackleinenkern. Diese Kordel besteht aus 100 % ungefärbter Wolle, die um einen Sackleinenkern gewickelt ist. Ideal für Bastelprojekte im Innenbereich, z. B.: Hocker, Matten, Sitze, Teppiche.
Ich habe kürzlich einen Teppich aus diesem schönen Garn gewebt und war überrascht, wie wenig man braucht, um eine große Fläche zu bedecken. Der Teppich ist robust, saugfähig und sehr strapazierfähig.
1 kg entspricht ca. 75m

Lása is a uniquely fine yarn in our range — delicate, luminous, and deeply responsive to natural colour.
Traditionally considered a weaving yarn, its exceptionally fine structure and strength make it equally suited to lace knitting, held double knitting, or carried alongside other yarns to add depth and subtle colour variation.
Its smooth surface allows natural dyes to penetrate deeply, producing rich, saturated colours with beautiful tonal depth whilst remaining softly semi-solid.
Though fine, Lása retains strength and cohesion, making it a joy to work with for lace makers, weavers, and knitters drawn to delicate structures.
The wool is sourced and spun entirely in Peru. Each skein is then naturally dyed at AppleOak FibreWorks using traditional, sustainable natural dye methods and dye materials.

Lása is exceptionally fine yet strong, allowing for delicate structures with excellent durability.
Its smooth surface produces deep, luminous natural colour with subtle tonal variation. When held double or combined with other yarns, it adds depth, softness, and colour complexity.
