The present invention is embodied in a composite yarn having fibers of cotton and high-density polyethylene, or fibers of cotton, steel and fiberglass where the cotton fiber is in some fashion exposed to a surface to be engaged by the composite yarn. The present invention is further embodied in a method of making such composite yarns or a fabric including one or more composite yarns in accordance with the present invention. The present invention is further embodied in a method of making protective apparel, such as a glove, from a composite yarn or fabric in accordance with the present invention. By way of example, a knit glove made with either or any of the disclosed composite yarns enjoys the benefits of both cut-resistance and enhanced gripping ability. Such articles of manufacture thus protect a user from sharp or abrasive items while also allowing that user to handle items that may be wet or otherwise difficult to manipulate.
