tassel for yarn

Tassel photos are meant to show fiber texture and size. Each tassel is approximately 3 inches long. By looking at the tightly wrapped section as compared to the tail, you can get a sense of the stretch of the yarn. Additionally, we try to provide images that are large enough so that you can see how coarse or smooth the fibers are, and how tightly or loosely spun the yarn is.

We try to select a neutral color for tassel samples. Generally, if there is a "white" color in a yarn line, that is what we will use. However, please note that tassel photos may be shown in colors that are no longer available.

We love the feel of yarn. We also love the internet. Unfortunately, despite our best efforts and largest photos, the feel of yarn can't be conveyed through the internet. We encourage you to purchase sample cards of yarns that you find interesting. This is the best way to really "feel" a yarn, and to accurately see the colors. We think that the small cost will pay off in inspiration very quickly! Thanks for your interest and we wish you the best with your fiber projects.

Sincerely, All of us here at Halcyon Yarn.
