Discover the magical world of fun NOVELTY YARNS like the Ribbon Yarn
Ribbon or tape 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. Ribbon yarns can be composed of many materials, from synthetics to silk to plant fibers. Ribbon yarns can be made out of different materials: cotton, rayon, nylon — that feels like craft ribbon. It can be found in solids and varigated colors from numerous manufacturers. It’s often sold in relatively small quantities of around 100 yards per ball. Knitting with ribbon yarn can be a challenge if you’re a perfectionist and you like all of your stitches to look perfect. Ribbon yarn loves to spin and twist while you are working with it, and nothing short of constant vigilance on the part of the knitter will keep the yarn from twisting. You’ll have to make the call whether that bothers you and plan accordingly, or stay away from this yarn! Ribbon yarn is great for accessories like belts and headbands, even bags. It’s a good weight for a summer top. It could be combined with other yarns for a slightly more durable look, but it’s really cute on its own. Light and airy…wide and super bulky…matte or glittery…flat or tubular. Ribbon yarns are incredible for making garments or items that look beyond the ordinary. They are suitable for most knitting or crochet projects including tops, skirts, shawls, scarves, and throws. Available in a variety of different fibers or materials, our ribbon yarns provide you with an extensive option to create that special look which only ribbon yarns can create.
