New Introduction To Commonly Yarn

2022-05-05

Compound Yarns:
Commonly mentioned yarns are single-strand yarns but when more than one strand can be used they are called compound yarns; these can be further classified into ply, cabled or fancy yarn.

a. Ply yarn: Some call this folded yarn. It is a combination of two or more strands that are twisted together to ensure the correct use of the S and Z twists so the yarn will stay together. This yarn can lend greater strength and durability to a fabric when used e.g. men’s shirts and hand-knitting yarns.

b. Cabled yarn: Two sets of plied yarns are twisted together to produce a bulkier yarn.

c. Fancy yarn: This yarn can be made during the spinning process, and it can provide a wide variety of textures and colors to the yarn. The basic components of fancy yarn are the base (or core), the ‘effect’ yarn, and, sometimes, a binder to hold everything together.

Adding a variety of colors to the textured yarns lend a mottled or marbleized effect to the fabric, whereas combining matt and luster effects with the fibers produces fabrics such as Lurex. However, the durability of these yarns is not as good as the uniform-spun yarns.
