Results on spinning, plying and twisting trials were presented last year for 80/2 Ne yarns with weaving twist. Results this year are for 60/2 Ne yarns with a knitting twist. These yarns were used to make knitted fabric samples that were subsequently dyed and finished, in order that acceptability of fabric appearance could be evaluated. Completed results will be reported in this presentation.
