Polyester-Fine Merino Wool Knitting Yarn from Japan

This industrial knitting yarn blends polyester staple fibers chiefly with fine merino wool for sweater and garment production. It is not put up for retail sale, so it falls under tariff item 5509.52.00 for other yarn of polyester staple fibres mixed mainly or solely with wool or fine animal hair.

Import Tips

• Confirm the merino wool is fine animal hair and that polyester is the predominant fibre by weight

• Ensure the yarn is in non-retail packaging, such as industrial cones

• Maintain detailed records of the fibre blend for CBSA inspection
