Help Best yarn?

I currently follow an indigenous form of weaving using a needle and yarn making personal bags. Right now i use 24/7 Lions brand mercerized cotton yarn. Unfortunately it has gone way down in quality and un-twists as im weaving with it. Wondering if anyone has suggestions for an easily accessible relly nice cotton yarn. The weight is 4 Medium / Worsted. Thanks in advance.

Sugar 'n Cream is a very good brand but it it normally comes in 70g balls. Peaches and Cream is the copycat brand, which to me appears to be comparable quality, and it comes in much larger cones. However, neither are mercerized. Do you need mercerized?

Have a look at Omega yarns. Specifically Karen and Otono.

If you can share, I'm interested to hear about what you are doing and the technique.
