Boucle yarn – pros, cons, characteristics

The word boucl is from the French boucl; means curly, curly. The bouclé yarn is a microfiber yarn characterized by increased lightness and softness. This type of yarn can be single-color and multi-color. When knitting from this yarn, the surface of the product becomes especially airy. If you decide to create a voluminous and soft product, this yarn is ideal for this. The boucled yarn is woven in such a way that spectacular threads are superimposed on a thin warp thread, on which loop-like thickenings are randomly located. The volume of the product will depend on how tightly the loops are located to each other. Also, one of the types of such yarn is yarn with irregularly shaped knots randomly located on it. The knots are often located at different distances from each other. In order to obtain this yarn, it is necessary to use a fiber in the warp that twists slightly and is long, for example, mohair. Boucle yarn is spun only on a spinning wheel, a spindle is not suitable for this.

Bouclé yarn can be combined with other types of yarn.

This calculation will come in handy later in the process of knitting the thing you have planned.
