Yarn
Yarn - by the number
Yarn is dyed on-site in the Australian Tapestry Workshop specialist colour laboratory. using the finest Australian wool.
Considered the best wool in the world for tapestry, the yarn is a 3/20 worsted, which is characterized by smooth fibres that lie parallel and give a strong, even twist of uniform character. The fleece type is 28 micron, moth-proofed and dyed with lightfast and colourfast dyes (yet fine enough for mixing on the bobbins).
Textile artists prefer the Australian Tapestry Workshop's yarn for a broad range of artistic and craft endeavours including knitting and embroidery.
Our basic palette consists of 60 colour ranges, each divided into six or seven tones, resulting in a palette of 366 colours.
Please note that actual colours of yarn may diiffer from the colour represented on the the yarn colour chart pdf. See our shipping and returns poilcy for more details.
