Stretchy Yarn For Knitting

Single-strand elastic knitting yarn refers to a yarn that has only one high-elastic fiber mixed with other fibers. It generally uses a core-wrapped or wrapped method. The high-elastic fiber is used as the core yarn and other fibers are wrapped around it to form a core-wrapped or wrapped yarn. wrapped structure. The advantage of single-strand elastic knitting yarn is that it has high elasticity and recovery force, can maintain good shape stability and non-ironing properties, and also has good dyeability and moisture absorption and breathability. The disadvantage of single-strand elastic knitting yarn is that the bonding force between the core yarn and the outer fiber is not strong enough, and the core yarn is prone to be exposed or broken, affecting the appearance and quality of the yarn and fabric.

Single-strand elastic knitting yarn is mainly used to make knitted fabrics and knitted garments, such as sportswear, tights, underwear, etc.

Multi-strand elastic knitting yarn refers to a yarn that is twisted by two or more single-strand elastic knitting yarns. Generally, two or more single-strand elastic knitting yarns are twisted using the Siro or Sirofil method.

Elastic knitting yarns are fed into the spinning frame in parallel or staggered patterns, forming a structure similar to strands or composite threads. The advantage of multi-strand elastic knitting yarn is that it has better uniformity and softness, which can improve the feel and appearance of the fabric. It also has good wear resistance and washability. The disadvantage of multi-strand elastic knitting yarn is that a certain stretching force is exerted on the core filament during the twisting process, which reduces the restoring force of the core filament and affects the elasticity of the fabric. Multi-strand elastic knitting yarn is mainly used to make woven fabrics and woven garments, such as casual pants, jeans, suits, etc.
