HILLS

New yarn with texture

LANTIQUE

A new merino wool yarn for autumn and winter

A Woolmark Company innovation for knitwear yarns developed in collaboration with Xinao Textiles.

Faced and washed out looks are popular in casual garments. The classic way of creating the faded look on wool knitwear products is to simply use pigments which can be boned to wool fibre with binders and knitwear garment washing treatment； this approach often compromises handle and rubbing fastness. Furthermore pigment systems are only suitable for garment application， which requires extra skills from the knitter or weaver. A new technique has been developed， through an international collaboration between The Woolmark Company and Xinao Textiles， to enable merino wool yarns to possess an inherent ability to fade on washing.

This type of merino wool yarn can be knitted as normal and then during special wet finishing of the knitwear the color of the garment is partially removed from the wool fibre surface to leave an antique or faded look.

Besides all those above， Xinao launched trends information on color， yarn and knitting structure to the audiences.
