Very well presented. Thank you. I am crocheting a lace shawl wirh finfering yarn mix of 50% baby llama and 50% lyocell. It is the softest yummiest yarn i have ever worked with. Just love it. So smooth too and silky

I found your delivery very pleasing to the ear, the information prioritised the environment in a way that I like but see very rarely, and easy to absorb. I read the comments and that included (as usual, critical ones) and didn’t find even one that was fair (for example you DID say Tencel is a brand name and Lyocell a generic one). So I am surprised your channel doesn’t have at least half a million subscribers: its so difficult to make informed choices in fabric today. Anyway, I hope you keep on working on the channel, I think I am going to watch every video. 🥂!

Hi, What do you know about washing and ironing this fabric. I understand you cannot use heat on some of theses type of fabrics. I found some cotton/Lyocell blend fabric and want to make some button down shirts. They will need to be pressed. Great video, by the way!
@Mythrose4 жыл бұрын
Hey, great question. Since it’s mixed with cotton I’d assume it could take fairly high heat but if I were doing it I’d start out on a medium setting and go up from there on a scrap piece, which is basically standard practice when you don’t know which setting to use. Since there’s different mixes and qualities available I don’t know of a standard setting for lyocell. As for washing, like for most garments/things, best practice is to wash as little as possible, when you do wash use cold water and hang dry. But for your pre-cut wash I would try a hot wash on a scrap piece to experiment because cotton shrinks and lyocell isn’t supposed to shrink, if I remember correctly, so a hot wash could potentially leave you with a warped piece of fabric depending on how the fibres are blended. Hope this helps, sorry I couldn’t be more specific.

I’m a chemical engineering student and we are doing our final thesis about Lyocell from citric’s peel so I wanted to ask you if you have the web site or some forum to read a little bit more about this. Or maybe the sites you used to find out all this information. Thank you anyway and great video!! Greetings from Argentina

I wanted to wear the properties of a linen wedding dress and its stunning but has lyocell slip underneath, to me it just felt synthetic so I'm skeptical, glad to learn and educate...just not sure I like the unnatural feeling lol
@Mythrose4 жыл бұрын
Yes, the lyocell I've touched, to me, feels very nice but it doesn't quite feel natural, kind of in between. Of course for some people 100% polyester will feel ok and for others only certain types or whatever, in the end if your goal is comfort it's all individual preference. Thanks for stopping by and happy to help!

@Mythrose4 жыл бұрын
Ya, so lyocell is a more sustainable rayon, but it's not necessarily more 'natural'. It's a cellulose fibre like regular rayon but they're able to reuse the chemicals and it can biodegrade because they don't change the cell structure of the cellulose...that's not really a difference you can feel or know by touching it. It's simply a more sustainable alternative to something that you don't like so it's not surprising that you don't like it. Hope that makes sense. And thank you, you've given me something to add for future fabric videos!

you mentioned birch and oak, then you discribed it as softwood 😣 once it is re-generated into fiber, there is no different from cotton fiber, but the molecular weight is slgiht different. Lyocell is a generic name and Tencel is a brand name, they are not the same! Overall, you have done well in explaining the material!
@Mythrose4 жыл бұрын
Oops, I knew oak is hard wood. What do you mean there is no difference from cotton fibre? It drapes differently, feels different, washes and wears different. I know Lyocell is generic and tencel is a brand, but fabric wise there’s no difference, I guess I didn’t make that clear.

Does it mean it makes the item super expensive?? Ridiculous-$100.00 for a 👕 🙄🤨,.........
@Mythrose4 жыл бұрын
When an item is ethically sourced, produced and sold from start to finish it will be a lot more expensive than it’s less ethical counter part. The reason it’s less ethical counterpart exists is for the sole reason of cheaper production, with the goal of either high profit margins and/or more competitive pricing. In the end 100$ for a totally ethical t-shirt in 2020 probably isn’t far from reality. However, there are a lot of great t-shirts for much cheaper at thrift stores, which are my favourite places to shop, because reusing what we already have will always be more Earth friendly than making something new, even if it’s sustainable.
