Hank

Standard measure for a length of cotton yarn is “hank”. A hank measures 840 yards. Hank yard is used typically in hand loom production as opposed to cone yarn which is used in mill production. Hank yarn is available from a coarse 2’s count to a fine 120’s count based on the fiber length of cotton.
