| Huacaya fiber has a waviness to the individual fibers as well as to the staple. You can refer to the staple waviness as "crimp". This waviness helps to hold the fibers together during processing and makes it easier to form into yarn. Suri fiber is similar to mohair in many respects and Suri is prized for its luster and drape. Lacking crimp Huacaya fiber. Suri fiber may be combined with a fine sheep's wool to provide some crimp. |
