English translation:yarns of homogeneous mix, single ply, two ply.
Explanation:
yes, ply is the term you need,; "ply" is the characteristics of yarns and it means how many "threads" are twisted to achieve a certain thickness, so you have the Bg "dvoika/troika/chetvorka, etc."

Asker: Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately there is no context, just a list of various types of yarn. Meanwhile I made some research, and that is what I found: "Single type of fibre yarn – single-ply and two-ply". I would appreciate your opinion on this.
