Ribbon Yarn, also known as Tape yarn is the star of today\u2019s article and the number 2 entry in my list that attempts to answer the ultimate question:<\/span><\/p>\n

What type of yarn is best for bags?<\/span><\/h2>\n

For those of you who don\u2019t\u2019 have a clue, what I am talking about, here is the link to my previous article that was dedicated to Tshirt yarn.<\/span><\/p>\n

To the surprise of many, Ribbon yarn is not the same as T shirt yarn. According to Wikipedia<\/a> \u201c.. ribbon yarn is a kind of novelty yarn. It is made of ribbon, but generally not the kind of ribbon used in sewing and millinery. Rather, they are ribbons made especially for knitting or crocheting, with some in a tubular form, some woven flat, and some similar in appearance to Bias tape..<\/span><\/p>\n

Though there are some mainly visual similarities between these two types of yarn, there is a distinctive feature that makes them different. The main disparity between T-shirt yarn and Ribbon yarn is that Ribbon Yarn is usually fabricated in a shape that resembles ribbon rather, than cut into a strand as T-shirt yarn is.<\/span><\/p>\n

As an exception to the above rule, I feel obliged to mention that in the market lately appeared some types of recycled ribbon yarn that are manufactured in methods similar to those of recycled Tshirt yarn.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another distinction is that Ribbon yarn is much lighter than t-shirt yarn. A big skein of Ribbon yarn usually weighs 250g (8.82oz) per 120m (131yds) when a big skein of T-shirt yarn usually weighs\u00a0 700-800gr per 100-120m.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ribbon yarn is produced out of a great variety of materials. From Silk and Chiffon to rayon, nylon, and lurex to viscose, cotton, paper, and several other plant fibers such as rafia.<\/span><\/p>\n
