A Comparison Of The ICI Pillbox And The Random Tumble Methods Is Assessing Pilling And Appearance Change Of Worsted Spun Cashmere And Cashmere-Wool Blend Knitwear∗ Bruce A. McGregor Abstract This study evaluated the differences between two international test methods on the assessment of pilling and appearance change of worsted spun cashmere and superfine wool knitwear and their blends. Differences between the standard ICI Pill Box Method and the Random Tumble Method were found in both the significance and magnitude of resistance to pilling and appearance change and the amount of fabric mass loss of worsted spun cashmere and cashmere superfine wool blend knit fabrics. The ICI Pill Box Method differentiated to a greater extent the effects of wool type and blend ratio of cashmere and wool compared with the Random Tumble Method. -

Choosing the Proper Short Cut Fiber for Your Nonwoven Web
Choosing The Proper Short Cut Fiber for Your Nonwoven Web ABSTRACT You have decided that your web needs a synthetic fiber. There are three important factors that have to be considered: generic type, diameter, and length. In order to make the right choice, it is important to know the chemical and physical characteristics of the numerous man-made fibers, and to understand what is meant by terms such as denier and denier per filament (dpf). PROPERTIES Denier Denier is a property that varies depending on the fiber type. It is defined as the weight in grams of 9,000 meters of fiber. The current standard of denier is 0.05 grams per 450 meters. Yarn is usually made up of numerous filaments. The denier of the yarn divided by its number of filaments is the denier per filament (dpf). Thus, denier per filament is a method of expressing the diameter of a fiber. Obviously, the smaller the denier per filament, the more filaments there are in the yarn. If a fairly closed, tight web is desired, then lower dpf fibers (1.5 or 3.0) are preferred. On the other hand, if high porosity is desired in the web, a larger dpf fiber - perhaps 6.0 or 12.0 - should be chosen. Here are the formulas for converting denier into microns, mils, or decitex: Diameter in microns = 11.89 x (denier / density in grams per milliliter)½ Diameter in mils = diameter in microns x .03937 Decitex = denier x 1.1 The following chart may be helpful. Our stock fibers are listed along with their density and the diameter in denier, micron, mils, and decitex for each: Diameter Generic Type -

Determination of Dehairing, Carding, Combing and Spinning Difference from Lama Type of Fleeces
International Journal of Applied Science and Technology Vol. 2 No. 1; January 2012 Determination of dehairing, carding, combing and spinning difference from Lama type of fleeces Franka1, E.N., Hicka, M.V.H. and Adotb, O. a.- SUPPRAD2 Program, Catholic University of Córdoba, Argentina b.- SUPPRAD Program. Habitat Foundation, Buenos Aires, Argentina Abstract Mixed fleeces as Llama fleeces, require a special textile process known as dehairing. This process behaves differently according to the Lama type of fleeces dehaired. Dehairing generates structural modifications on textile raw material as it eliminates the longer and straighter (coarser) fibres. This has a marked effect on the following worsted or woolen spinning processes. This work was designed for to test these effects with the objective to report how the type of fleeces affects dehairing, worsted or woolen combing and spinning performances. From a textile behavior point of view, a higher fiber diameter variation was detected in double coated fleeces than in luster fleeces. Luster fleeces have a lower bulk potential than double coated fleeces and a lower comb yield due to the higher dehairing effect. It is also this type that produces less ends protruding from the yarn, which may account in part for their diminished prickle effect. Key words: Lama fibre, textile trials, bristle, prickle, coarse fibres. 1. Introduction A characteristic peculiar to the fibre of South American Camelids (SAC) is the presence of a mixed fleece. This is the reason for their textiles processing requiring „dehairing‟ to achieve a superior quality product, because this process consists in the removal of the coarser fibers (Russel, 1990). -

In order to combat the unpleasant odors emanating from open sewers, insufficiently bathed neighbors, and, from time to time, the bodies of plague victims, a variety of perfumed goods such as fans, handkerchiefs, gloves, and “sweet bags” were available for purchase. The tradition of offering embroidered sweet bags containing gifts of small scented objects, herbs, or money began in the mid-sixteenth century. Typically, they are about five inches square with a drawstring closure at the top and two to three covered drops at the bottom. Economical housewives could even create their own perfumed mixtures to put inside. A 1621 recipe “to make sweete bags with little cost” reads: Take the buttons of Roses dryed and watered with Rosewater three or foure times put them Muske powder of cloves Sinamon and a little mace mingle the roses and them together and putt them in little bags of Linnen with Powder. The present object has recently been identified as a rare surviving example of a large-format sweet bag, sometimes referred to as a “sachet.” Lined with blue silk taffeta, the verso of the central canvas section contains two flat slit pockets, opening on the long side, into which sprigs of herbs or sachets filled with perfumed powders could be slipped to scent a wardrobe or chest. -
This Tutorial Will Explain What a Balanced Plied Yarn Is, and H
An HJS Studio Tutorial: Spinning Silk Caps I am proud to welcome Carol Weymar, a self-taught spinner and dyer of silk caps. I was much struck by the beauty of her work when I saw her website, so I asked her to write an ar- ticle, as silk is something I have no skill spinning. I hope you'll be as inspired by her expla- nation as I was! About Silk Caps Silk caps are made from cultivated cocoons that have been degummed and stretched over a frame shaped like a bell. They consist of a number of extremely thin layers; each layer is one cocoon. A cap "bell" is roughly two dozen caps, weighing about a pound altogether, which are fastened together at their tops and covered by one large cap whose edges are drawn out and tied together at the bottom to make a neat bundle. Cap silk is one of the most underrated types of silk available to the handspinner. It has its quirks, certainly, but mastering this form of silk is well worth your effort. It displays the beau- tiful luster of all its sister silks, but has the advantage of being a nearly continuous fiber. This means you can spin it to a very fine thread and it will be strong. It makes an excellent warp. It is very versatile; you can spin it into beautiful yarns, you can draw it into fine roving and knit or embroider with it in its unspun form, and you can blend it with other fibers to add bright color and gleaming highlights. -

How to Use Access Commodities Filament Silk Gimp
How to Use Access Commodities Filament Silk Gimp This innovative thread was recreated from 17th century examples found on period needlework. The unique structure of silk gimp consists of a filament silk core wrapped with filament silk. The cord like appearance is both sleek and supple to use, providing an interesting surface texture. It is recommended to treat Filament Silk Gimp like real metal thread passing threads, which are not stitched back and forth through a fabric or canvas, but applied on the surface to great effect. Step 1: First knot the end of the silk gimp before unreeling it off the spool. As you un- reel the silk gimp, it may twist back on itself, due to the composition of the thread. Sim- ply stroke it to smooth it out. Step 2: Unreel a small amount of thread about 4 to 6 inches and snap the top of the spool on the remainder. (See illustration #1) Don’t cut it off the spool but leave it on, unrolling a little more as you stitch. This helps controls the thread as you work and minimizes the twisting. Illustration No. 1 Step 3: The thread can be couched with Au Ver á Soie, Soie 100/3 or a single ply of Au Ver à Soie, Soie de Paris. (See list below for list matching colors.) A Crewel #10 needle is recommended. You will find it helpful if the couching thread is waxed for control. Copyright L. Haidar for Access Commodities, 2013. Date: December 2013 Step 4: Make your couching stitches slanted rather than straight because of the twist of the thread. -
