    2. Yarn Form
    Leica primarily appears in fabrics in the forms of core-spun yarn, wrapped yarn, covered yarn, and bare yarn.
    Core-spun yarn/cored yarn/covered yarn features the appearance and hand feel of wrapped fibers while also possessing excellent elasticity, making it widely used in various types of fabrics.
    Lycra bare silk exhibits excellent dyeability and wearability. It is commonly used in knitted underwear, sock hems, bandages, and sportswear. When stretched, Lycra elongates and thins, enhancing the alluring charm of garments when applied to products like sheer stockings.
