  Définition

  A yarn with a core or center of another, different yarn.

  Note :

  This is made by winding one yarn around another to give the appearance of a yarn made solely from the outer material. The core may be used for several reasons : it may add strength to the yarn, or it may be a method of reducing the cost of the yarn by using a less expensive material for the center.

  Termes :

  1. core yarn
  2. core-yarn
  3. covered yarn
  4. cored yarn
  5. core spun yarn
