Blown yarns are a unique treat when talking about yarn construction. Most yarns are constructed from fibers spun together but not blown yarns. Blown yarns are created when a mesh tube is formed and fibers and blown through and into the tube. Kind of like a flexible pipe filled with air and fiber. This means the fabric will have a unique drape of even tension while the flexibility of the mesh tube allows for wiggle room in the gauge. The blown fiber creates a desirable halo effect and in the case of CaMaRose Host where the blown fibers are dyed independently, a special tweed-y blend of colors.
