What is the properties of yarns?
are you asking the uses of combed yarn and what it is?- because in that case it would be cotton blended yarn used for weaving materials: poleyester/cotton
What is the meaning of worsted?
of Worst, Well-twisted yarn spun of long-staple wool which has been combed to lay the fibers parallel, used for carpets, cloth, hosiery, gloves, and the like., Fine and soft woolen yarn, untwisted or lightly twisted, used in knitting and embroidery.
What is carding of yarn?
Since one cannot card yarn, I assume what you're talking about is yarn spun from wool that has been carded, as opposed to combed or simply not carded at all. Carding is the process of brushing the wool prior to spinning to remove debris and tangles and to orient the individual hairs in more or less the same direction. Carded fibers are typically spun into woolen yarns (which are soft and fluffy) and combed fibers are typically spun into worsted yarns (which are smoother and harder).
What is ring spun carded and combed yarn and what are their uses?
There are three commercial methods of spinning yarn into the product we see at the store. They are called Ring Spun, Rotor Spun, and Friction Spun. Each method produces different results in the yarn. The full question, ring spun carded and combed, refers to the fiber preparation method of carding (brushing) and combing the fibers prior to spinning, in order to form a softer yarn which is best for soft knit items. The fibers are spun in a ring arrangement making it unnecessary for extra plies, so the yarn is much finer. There is also a downside to using ring spun, because the very process that causes it to be softer also causes the yarn to be more prone to breaking.
A cloth named after a village all fibers combed one way?
Worsted is the name of a yarn, the cloth made from this yarn, as well as a yarn weight category. The name derives from the village of Worstead in the English county of Norfolk. This village became, along with North Walsham and Aylsham, a centre for the manufacture of yarn and cloth after weavers from Flanders arrived in Norfolk in the 12th century.(from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worsted)
What is spun yarn?
There are two basic techniques for spinning wool: woolen and worsted. In woolen spinning, the fibers are oriented perpendicular to the yarn being made, while in worsted spinning the fibers are oriented parallel to the yarn being made. Woolen fibers are carded, creating a fuzzier, softer yarn. Worsted fibers are combed creating a smoother, harder yarn. Woolen yarns are generally preferred by knitters while worsted yarns are generally preferred by weavers.
What is the difference between carded yarn and combed yarn?
Carding partially aligns the fibers and forms them into a thin web that is brought together as a soft, very weak rope of fibers called a carded sliver. Carding is when short wire teeth remove trash and neps (entangled clumps of short, underdeveloped fibers). Combing is used if long-staple fibers are to be spun. It produces a yarn that is superior to a carded yarn in smoothness, fineness, evenness, and strength. Combing aligns fibers in a parallel arrangement & also removes short fibers so fibers in the combed sliver will be more uniform in length.
Why are there numerals in the meaning of yarn?
Because it has more than on definition
Do you need wool?
Wool is first carded- the fibers are combed so they are in parallel lines, then spun- twisted in yarn (fat threads). The yarn is woven by passing strands of yarn over and under other strands of yarn. This is usually done using a device known as a loom- and a shuttle. The loom holds the non-moving yarns, and the shuttle carries the strand that is being woven above and below the non-moving strands.
Difference between carded and combed yarn process?
If the yarn is spun in the direction of the fibers a smoother yarn is produced than if the yarn is spun perpendicular to the fibers. Carding removes tangles in wool fibers but does not fully align the fibers so they are all going in exactly the same direction. Most may be going in one direction but there will always be some going off in their own direction. If the carded fiber is spun with most of the fibers going in the direction of spinning (ie toward the spinning wheel), it will produce a more compact, smoother yarn. If it is spun with most of the fibers perpendicular to the direction of spin, it will produce a fluffier, airier yarn. However, because there is always some haphazard arrangement of fibers that have been carded, carded wool will always produce fluffier yarn than combed wool. Fluffy or airy yarn is generally best suited for knitting. Combing is much more labor intensive. Fine toothed combs are used to straighten and align each individual fiber parallel to the direction of spinning AS the fiber is being spun. Unlike carding, combing cannot be done ahead of time. This produces a very smooth, very compactly spun yarn which is best suited for weaving. When cotton or another fabric is "combed," the shortest, additional fibers of a batch are removed. The result produces high-quality, extra soft yarns with excellent strength and softness. Combed cotton uses finer fiber than carded yarns and is more regular and expensive than carded yarn.
