<< Has anyone ever tried using tapestry yarn for card weaving, like Paternyan persian yarn, is that yarn tightly spun enough to use for card weaving or/and strong enough to take the tension & twist? >> Jessica, I think it would depend on whether you used it full-strength at 3-ply or not. I personally prefer to stay away from wool for TW, but you might want to try it just to see how it feels/works/looks. Some of the very earliest brocaded TW bands are missing their warp, and it is probable that it was a very fine wool thread which has since disappeared.
