Abstract
A yarn which imparts a high level of wearing comfort to a textile portion is produced by forming a knitted portion from the yarn, subjecting the knitted portion to a treatment by which the curl imparted to the yarn by the stitches of the knitted portion is set. The yarn is undone again after the setting step. The yarn has preferably a main thread and an elastic thread. A textile fabric and an article of clothing are also provided.
