What do you mean by count :
Hello, viewers hope you are well everybody. Today in this blog I am going to discuss clear yarn count with you.
The count is the numerical value of yarn. Actually, count denotes the fineness and thickness of the yarn whether the yarn is how much thicker or how much thinner.
Here, hank= 840 yards
1 pound = 453.56 grams
Yarn count can be classified into two systems.
1. Direct system
2. Indirect system
1 . Direct count = (w÷w')÷(L÷L')
2. Indirect count=(L÷L')÷(W÷W')
If we want to know or find out the actual count of the Cotton yarn then we need to do as below:
Generally, we express cotton count as hanks/pound. Hanks/pound means the number of hanks in cotton yarn of 1 pound. The number of hanks may vary. If we test some samples and get results as 8, 9, 10 hanks in every 1 pound then we can call its count 8, 9, 10.
If we want to know or find out the actual count of the jute yarn then we need to do as below:
