Multisection color-blended wool yarn produced by a new three-channel spinning method
By dynamically controlling the feeding amount and feeding ratio of the three feeding rollers with program logical control system under the requirements of yarn spinning parameters, it is possible to effectively configure the final yarn density and the blending ratio of three components to produce multisegment gradient yarns, segment-color yarn, and segment-color slub yarn named as multisegment blending yarns. The yarn-spinning new method was proposed. Different kinds of fancy yarns including gradient yarns, segment color yarns, and slub yarns were produced. The fiber blending effects were demonstrated by slices of yarn cross section, and the surface morphology of yarns were figured out by the photo of yarns. Integrally knitting seamless sweater and different type of pattern were designed and knitted by multisegment blending yarns. The free change of colors along the length direction on a single yarn provides an effective method for integrated rapid design and production of sweaters through mutual design of the overall pattern and the structure of the fabric.
