FLAKE YARN


This novelty yarn is a variation on a slub yarn, in which the flake or slub is created by inserting soft, puffy clumps of roving at intervals held in place by an accompanying binder yarn. As a result, the ending yarn has variations in thickness and softness throughout the length of the finished yarn. Applications for a flake yarn are mainly in end-use fabrics where a fancy effect texture to the fabric is desired.

ZYIA - Item 793 - Black Brilliant Hi-Rise Leggings 28
The most versatile of all workout clothing, our brilliant performance legging reigns supreme. The high, structured waistband comes right to your bellybutton and won't dig, pinch, or tug as you move. Flat-serged seams inside and out— plus 25% Spandex content—provide the wear-all-day comfort you demand from a quality legging.

ZYIA - Item 1529 - Men's Black Track Shorts - Long
We designed these track shorts to be unlined, for the athlete that likes to keep his options open. We also designed them to last, with features like double top-stitched hems, gasket-finished zippers. There are also 4 generous pockets & made with anti-chafe seams, just a hint of stretch and plenty of wicking performance.
