its called variegated yarn. Nice explanation of the process, as someone who picked cotton by hand as a young kid this was fun to watch.

This was very interesting. I love cotton clothing. 100% cotton blouses are getting difficult to find in the stores. And I don't mind ironing!!! 😆

I would love to see a video on the process of the making of Acrylic and polyester yarns especially when a portion comes from recycled materials.
The cotton yarn video was very interesting and informative to watch!

I am interested in how yarn is made from plant fibers such as bamboo, banana, peppermint, corn silk, and rosewood. Please?
