100/144 Microfilament Yarn
100/144 Microfilament Yarn — Peach-skin and micro-suede apparel · soft athleisure · next-to-skin/intimate knits. Ultra-soft, silky drape; peach-skin / suede potential.
The yarn that brings microfilament touch into the mid-weight band: 100 denier across 144 filaments, roughly 0.69 denier each. It delivers filaments as fine as 50/72 but at twice the total denier — the same silky surface in a fabric with more cover and more body. This is the yarn for programmes that want a micro hand at t-shirt weight. It shares the 100-denier band (3.8–4.5 cN/dtex, 3.5–5.5 shrinkage); what sets it apart is not those figures but the surface 144 filaments create.
