Lily Mills was at the center of the American weaving yarn industry for most of the 20th century, until their closure in the 1980s. They were renowned for the quality and consistency of their products.

This yarn is an unmercerized cotton in an 20/3 format. It can be used in many different weaving projects, and is suitable for both warp and weft. It can also be used as sewing machine thread. 

This cone weighs 15.5 ounces, just under its original weight of 1 pound. The remaining estimated yardage is 3,100. It likely dates from the 1970s.

The color is a golden beige color. The color code was for a light brown sometimes called "Tan" or "Fawn", so the color may have changed over time.
