What does 17 microns mean? Micron is a unit of measure. It is used to measure the width of a single strand of fiber. For reference, human hair is 50-120 microns, with most hair being about 70-90 microns. Most merino wool yarn for hand knitting is 19.5 - 22 microns. Cashmere is any goat fiber that is 19 microns or less. So, a merino yarn made with 17 micron merino is cashmere soft.
