Let’s Learn About Tencel

Let’s learn about Tencel! Are you in? Me, too! While I haven’t worked with it much, after doing a bit of research, I have a few fun facts to share with you!

Tencel is a wonderful weaving fiber with great shine and vivid colors. “Tencel” is actually a brand name for lyocell. And if you haven’t had the chance to work with it yet, I hope this week’s episode of A Handwoven Experience will give you the nudge you need!

So, if you want to do a deeper dive into the process of making lyocell, I’ve got you covered! Simply click here to check it out.
