Understanding Yarn Count: A Simple Guide

Yarn count is an important concept in the textile industry. It tells us how thick or thin a yarn is, and it relates the length of the yarn to its weight . In simple terms, yarn count shows the ratio of length to weight .  Two Types of Yarn Count Systems There are two main systems used to measure yarn count: Direct Count and Indirect Count . 1. Direct Count System In this system, the weight of a fixed length of yarn is measured. The weight per unit length determines the yarn count. The formula is: N = (I × C) / L Where: N = Yarn count I = Unit of length (like meters or yards) C = Weight of the sample L = Length of the sample In the Direct Count System , the length of yarn is fixed , and its weight varies based on the yarn's thickness. Common Direct Count Systems: Tex : The weight in grams of 1000 meters of yarn. Example : A 40 Tex yarn means 1000 meters of yarn weighs 40 grams. Denier : The weight in grams of 9000 meters of yarn. Example : A 150 Denie...
