ABSTRACT

Single set of 40s Ne yarns were spun from five different blends of bamboo micro modal fibres on Muratec vortex spinning. The blending of bamboo and micro modal fibres having the specification was carried out on the mixing department. The blended fibres were processed in Lakshmi Rieter blow room line and carded on a MMC card. The carded slivers were drawn and then spun into yarns on Muratec vortex 810 MVS operating at 400 m/min. Different blend ratios of yarn produced were used to make single jersey knitted fabric on conventional and seamless knitting (Table 25.1).
