Yarn is a lengthy, intertwined strand of fibers utilized in various crafts such as sewing, crocheting, knitting, weaving, embroidery, ropemaking, and textile production. Thread, a specific type of yarn, is intended for hand or machine sewing. Modern sewing threads are often treated with wax or other lubricants to endure the stresses of sewing.

Embroidery threads are specially crafted for needlework, while yarn can be composed of a range of natural or synthetic materials, available in diverse colors and thicknesses known as "weights." Although yarns can be dyed in various hues, they often come in solid colors with consistent coloring.

The human practice of yarn production dates back to the Stone Age and earlier, with ancient fibers evolving from animal hides to reeds and early fabrics. Cotton, wool, and silk were among the initial materials used for yarn, playing a significant role in the ancient global economy through textile trade.

Synthetic fibers like nylon, acrylic, rayon, and polyester are also commonly used as yarn. These fibers are typically extruded in continuous strands and come in various forms: staple (cut fibers), tow (loosely joined fibers in a continuous rope), and filament (continuous strand). Synthetic fiber is commonly measured by weight per linear measurement, with Denier and Dtex being common metrics. Filament extrusion, though sometimes referred to as "spinning," is distinct from spun yarn production.
