100% acrylic
Acrylic is a thread of synthetic origin. It is soft and pleasant to the touch, used mainly for knitting. Today, acrylic is used in their products by manufacturers from around the world.
In its pure form, acrylic is rarely used. Most often, acrylic is added to: cotton – to improve hygienic properties; polyester – it gives acrylic resistance to moisture and increased strength; wool – it improves performance and quality characteristics; viscose – to enhance elasticity and silkiness.
Properties of acrylic thread:
– hypoallergenic and environmentally friendly;
– has excellent heat-retaining properties;
– with proper use retains its shape for a long time;
– color does not burn out;
– has water-repellent properties;
– dries quickly and does not settle;
– bacteria are not found in the thread;
– more affordable price in contrast to natural counterparts.
Disadvantages include the fact that acrylic is poorly permeable to air, so in hot weather can cause sweating. Also the material can be electrified and rolled.
