What is spun yarn?
There are two basic techniques for spinning wool: woolen and worsted. In woolen spinning, the fibers are oriented perpendicular to the yarn being made, while in worsted spinning the fibers are oriented parallel to the yarn being made. Woolen fibers are carded, creating a fuzzier, softer yarn. Worsted fibers are combed creating a smoother, harder yarn. Woolen yarns are generally preferred by knitters while worsted yarns are generally preferred by weavers.
