German term or phrase: Garnfeuchte
Do they really mean the moistness of the yarn - it just seems a slightly strange thing to do - it's in the same old spinning mill!

humidity


Explanation:
The source is badly written. One does, technically speaking,not meassure the "moistness of the yarn", but the humidity in the package. From such a measurement one could draw conclusions about the "moistness of the yarn". Rewrite recommended!
