75/72 Textured Yarn
75/72 Textured Yarn — Soft general apparel knits · blouses/shirtings · light sportswear. A soft-yet-stable balance; good drape and cover.
A yarn that sits just above the micro line: at roughly 1.04 dpf it does not qualify as microfilament, yet it is nowhere near coarse. That borderline position makes it one of the most balanced yarns in the catalogue — softer and better draping than the 36-filament versions without being as velvety as the 144-filament ones. Its semi-dull lustre gives a natural, non-plastic surface. It works in soft general-apparel knits, blouses and shirtings, and light sportswear — programmes where one yarn has to deliver both hand and stability. If you need a genuine micro touch, step to 50/72 or the 150/288 band.
