Quick Comparison of Fancy Yarn Structures

Use this table to compare yarn count ranges, common materials and production notes before sending a sample or bulk inquiry. The data below is based on our current yarn development experience and should be confirmed by the exact color, composition and fabric target.

Yarn directionTypical count / materialCommon useProduction note for buyers
Tape Yarn / Tube YarnUsually 1.7 NM to 7.2 NM. Acrylic, cotton, cotton-acrylic blend, polyester, metallic yarn, lyocell and linen-cotton are common.Sweaters, cardigans, scarves and fashion fabrics, often for 3GG, 5GG and 7GG knitwear.For metallic combinations, base yarns should be dyed first. High-temperature after-dyeing can damage the shine or color of metallic filament.
Space Dyed YarnCommon base yarns include cotton, acrylic and other regular yarns. Normal space dyed styles usually start around 100 kg per pattern.Color-effect sweaters, scarves and sample development where repeated color cycles are required.Normal space dyeing often uses about 3 color sections, while spray dyeing can also use 3 spray colors. Cycle length follows the customer’s swatch or color requirement.
Spray Dyed / Spray Yarn EffectSpray yarn directions are commonly around 2 NM to 7 NM. Cotton, acrylic, polyester, nylon, wool and recycled polyester blends can be used.Sweaters, knitted coats and scarves with soft mixed-color effects.Most spray yarns are made from pre-colored fibers or yarns. After-dyeing mixed-fiber finished yarn can cause uneven color because each fiber needs different dyeing conditions.
Metallic Yarn / Lurex Tube YarnComposition can be customized. One current reference is acrylic, polyester and lurex metallic filament in a 1/2.3 NM tube yarn structure.Knit sweaters, decorative yarn balls, scarves and bright fashion effects.Select yarn colors, Pantone or fabric targets before production. Acrylic and polyester yarns should be dyed before being made into metallic tube yarn.
Brushed Fancy YarnCounts and composition vary by fabric target. Polyester, acrylic, nylon, wool and recycled polyester blends are common directions.Warm sweaters, outerwear, soft scarves and fuzzy fabric surfaces.Confirm gauge, hand feel and brushing effect with a fabric swatch or sample photo before bulk production.
