Catchword: shoddy yarn

Filed Under: English, India

Part of Speech: n.

Quotation: I learnt that Panipat is the country’s biggest producer of shoddy yarn, importing rags from Europe, USA, Asia and Canada and spinning them into inexpensive yarn. In fact, its 350-plus shoddy spinning units give Panipat the distinction of having the largest number of shoddy spinning units in the world (Italy’s in the second place). Intrigued by what I’d heard, I decided to visit a shoddy yarn unit in the district.
