Abstract
In this paper the various causes which determine yarn hairiness are studied with particular reference to the influence of twist. A theory of the causes of hairiness in cotton, worsted and spun rayon yarns, which is based on the work of Morton and Yen concerning the migration of fibres in yarns, is outlined. The hairiness of two-fold and woollen yarns is also studied.Keywords
