i don't know much about yarn yet, but i would imagine that synthetic would melt rather than burn because of the type of fibers in it...so don't quote me LOL

Okay, I did an "ask jeeves" and after about 10 minutes of searching came up with this:

 

One surefire method to tell the difference between wool (and cotton) and synthetic fabrics is to test them against an open flame. Wool will burn to ash, while synthetics will melt.

 

Thanks for all your help!!
