About This Product
Yarn evenness affects how a woven or knitted fabric looks, because thick and thin places and other faults show up as uneven shading or streaks. In the board method, the yarn is wound side by side on a board at an even spacing, and the wrapped board is then examined by eye. The two faces of the board allow both light and dark yarns to be examined. Change gears allow different spacings, so yarns of different counts can be wrapped neatly. Students use the boards to grade and compare the appearance of yarn samples.
