The yarn is subjected
to many internal stresses due to the raw material and yarn spinning steps used. The yarn get rid of these stresses which it
subjected to and it gives opposite reaction againts rotation, which is
described as yarn liveliness. Yarn liveliness, may cause the spirality problem especially
in the structure of knitted fabrics.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of yarn spinning
system, yarn count and twist coefficient on the tendency of yarn snarling. In this study,
yarns were produced using 100% cotton materials, in five different spinning
systems, taking two different twist coefficients into consideration, and in two yarn counts. Yarn liveliness values of samples
were measured by Kringel Factor Meter Test Apparatus. As the twist coefficient
of the yarns increases and the yarn becomes thicker, the snarling tendency increases.
However, the highest yarn liveliness values were seen in the compact spinning
system.
