The importance of composition in weaving
Yarn composition is a fundamental aspect to consider when knitting, as it can have a significant impact on the final result of your project. Here are some reasons why yarn composition is important:
- Texture and appearance: The yarn composition determines the texture and appearance of the fabric. Different types of fibers (such as wool, cotton, acrylic, silk, etc.) have unique characteristics that affect how the fabric looks and feels. For example, wool can provide warmth and elasticity, while cotton provides coolness and softness. In addition, the composition affects the definition of the points.
- Quality and durability: The yarn composition also influences the quality and durability of your fabric. It is important to choose a good quality yarn that suits the purpose of your project to ensure that the fabric will last and maintain its appearance over time.
- Feel to the touch: The choice of yarn composition can affect how the fabric feels to the touch. Some fibers may be soft and luxurious, while others may be rougher or textured. Consider the purpose of the project, who it is intended for and the feel you want to achieve when selecting the yarn composition.
- Care and maintenance: The composition influences the care and maintenance required for your fabric. Some fibers are easier to wash and maintain, while others may require more delicate or specific care. Always be sure to read the care and washing instructions for the yarn.
- Allergies and sensitivities: Yarn composition is especially relevant if you have allergies or sensitivities to certain fibers. When choosing a yarn, be sure to consider your needs and avoid any fiber that may cause allergic reactions or discomfort.
Merino wool balls
Knitting with merino wool offers numerous benefits: its thermal insulation capacity is remarkable, making it an excellent choice for warm and cozy garments. The natural elasticity of merino wool also ensures that your fabrics maintain their original shape and fit comfortably. Its breathability allows air to circulate through the fibers, avoiding the sensation of humidity and ensuring long-lasting comfort. In short, knitting with merino wool gives you the softness, warmth and comfort you are looking for in your knitting projects.

Alpaca wool is an ideal choice for knitting enthusiasts. Its incomparable softness and silkiness make every stitch a real pleasure. In addition to its pleasant feel, alpaca wool provides exceptional thermal insulation. Its hollow fibers allow heat to be retained close to the body in cold weather, resulting in extremely warm and comfortable garments. Despite its ability to keep warmth in, alpaca wool is surprisingly lightweight, avoiding the feeling of bulging. It’s also water resistant, which means you can rely on your alpaca fabrics to keep you dry in wet conditions. Knitting with alpaca wool gives you a luxurious experience.
Cotton and linen balls

Cotton is a popular and versatile fiber for weaving for several reasons. First of all, its softness and comfort make it a pleasant choice for people with sensitive skin. The breathability of cotton allows air to circulate through the fibers, maintaining freshness. In addition, cotton is a hypoallergenic fiber, which means it is less likely to cause irritation or allergies compared to other fibers. Its widespread availability and easy care make it a convenient choice for weaving projects of all types.
Remember that these descriptions are general and may vary according to the quality and the specific type of each fiber, the number of strands, the twist… It is always important to consider your personal preferences and project requirements when choosing the type of wool or fiber to knit.
