Abstract
A method of producing a novel deeply creped fabric by using partially bulked yarn. Gyratory (or torque-imparted) partially bulked yarn obtained from a known twisting - heat setting - untwisting process is additionally twisted, or said process is conducted on the pre-twisted yarn to give extra twists to the non-bulked portions, so as to make conspicuous the difference between the bulked and non-bulked portions, and a fabric is woven or knit by using such yarn and is subjected to a creping treatment.
Claims6
A method of producing a deeply creped fabric comprising imparting an increased number of twists to a partly bulked yarn prepared from a twisting, heat-setting, untwisting process whereby the partly bulked yarn has bulked portions and non-bulked portions arranged alternately along the length of the yarn wherein the number of twists are increased mostly in the non-bulked portions of the yarn thereby making the difference between the bulked and non-bulked portions conspicuous and providing increased retractability for the yarn and manufacturing a fabric from the yarn with the additional twists and subjecting the fabric to a creping treatment.
