Tencel is a cellulose fibre, which is made by dissolving wood pulp and using a special drying process. Before it is dried, wood chips are mixed with a solvent to produce a wet mixture. The mixture is then pushed through small holes to form threads, which is then chemically treated and the lengths of fibre create roving. Tencel has a shine to it that will add shine to your blend. Or it can be spun by itself. It takes dye readily.

Tencel is a great alternative to synthetic fiber. It’s breathable, absorbs moisture and is soft on the skin. Manufacturing Tencel requires less energy and water than cotton. As a naturally derived fibre, Tencel is also biodegradable.
