NUB YARN


Also known as knot or spot yarns, this novelty yarn is made by twisting the ply around the core ply many times within a very short space. This twisting process causes bumps or nubs to appear at intervals along the length of the twisted yarn. Variations on this yarn spinning process can create different color nubs along the length of the yarn.
