Our knitting yarns can be divided into seven series according to their physical properties and usage characteristics.

Series I. Short fibre knitting yarns

Staple knitting yarn is made from various staple fibers by spinning process. Usually the staple fibers are spun into single knitting yarn through the staple yarn forming system, and then several single knitting yarns are combined and twisted into strands. If several strands are further combined and twisted, they will become double twisted strands. 

The strands are widely used in wool fabrics. Whether single yarn, ply knitting yarn or double twisted ply knitting yarn are used in the fabric should be determined according to the design requirements and use characteristics of the fabric.

Series II. Continuous filament knitting yarn (filament or silk)

1.Silk filament knitting yarn

Cocoon filament knitting yarn is a continuous filament made from cocoon silk on silkworm cocoon by reeling process, which is called cocoon filament knitting yarn because it contains sericin, commonly known as raw silk and factory silk. Several filaments are combined and twisted to form silk knitting yarns, both rubber-containing and degummed. Silk filament is an important raw material for silk industry, which is mainly used for processing various kinds of silk fabrics.

2. Chemical filament knitting yarn

Chemical filament knitting yarn is formed by clustering at the same time as chemical staple fibers. It does not need to be clustered into knitting yarns through staple spinning process before weaving into various kinds of fabrics. Compared with the former, the former has higher production efficiency, although it is made of filament knitting yarn and staple fibers of the same kind. Knitting yarns vary greatly in style.

Fiber-forming polymers form continuous filaments through spinnerets. The number of fibers contained in the filaments depends on the number of spinneret holes on the spinneret. Single-hole filament knitting yarn (commonly known as glass filament) is ejected from the single-hole spinneret, which can be used to weave transparent fabrics. The filament knitting yarn made of porous spinneret is called multifilament knitting yarn, which is called multifilament yarn for short. 

Twisted filament knitting yarn is formed after twisting of multi-filament yarn. By combining several twisted filament knitting yarns and twisting them together, a strand is formed. Because the strand is composed of filament, it is also called Double-Twisted yarn.

Series III. Ply knitting yarn,single knitting yarn,double twisting strand

The knitting yarn formed by two or more single knitting yarns through merging and twisting is called ply knitting yarn, or yarn for short. If necessary, multiple strands of knitting yarn can be assembled into another yarn by merging and twisting again. Such yarn is called double twisting strand. The single knitting yarn used to form the strand can be staple knitting yarn or filament knitting yarn; it can be the same fiber material or different fiber material, it can be the same staple knitting yarn or different.

Series IV. Filament/staple composite knitting yarn composed of staple fibers and filament knitting yarns

In the composite knitting yarn composed of staple fibers and filament knitting yarns, the typical product is core-spun knitting yarn, which is generally composed of two different fibers. 

The formation of the coating can be that the filament fibers are wrapped on the staple core or the staple fibers are wrapped on the core of the filament knitting yarn. 

The characteristics of the fibers and the special appearance effect can be obtained. For example, when the cotton fibers covered with polyester filament knitting yarn are acidified by polyester/cotton core-spun knitting yarn, because only the core skeleton of polyester fibers (polyester fibers are stable in acid solution), a strong three-dimensional pattern can be formed on the surface of the fabric.  

Filament is used as inner core and cotton fibers are wrapped around it. The clothes woven with such knitting yarns have both comfortable touch and elasticity. With the improvement of spinning technology, the combination of staple fibers and filament fibers has developed into a combination of parallel twisting of filament and staple fibers, which can simultaneously provide the style characteristics of filament yarn and staple knitting yarn, and is suitable for taking into account the respective advantages of different fibers and different aggregates.

Series V. Fancy knitting yarns

The application of fancy knitting yarn or fancy yarn is mainly aimed at decorative effect. It is usually twisted and combined irregularly with staple or filament knitting yarn to obtain discontinuous and periodic patterns. Fancy knitting yarns are generally composed of core knitting yarn, decoration knitting yarn and consolidation knitting yarn, which require special processing equipment or special technology. Common fancy knitting yarns are:

(1) keloid knitting yarn.

(2) Spiral knitting yarn.

(3) Bamboo knitting yarn.

(4) Wool wreath knitting yarn.

(5) Fruit floral knitting yarn.

(6) Rope wool knitting yarn.

(7) Rhombic metal multi-stranded knitting yarns and so on. Various fancy knitting yarns are widely used in garments, decorative fabrics, hand knitting and other fields because of their different characteristics of raw material composition, appearance, handle and knitting yarn count.

Series VI. Deformed knitting yarns

The knitting yarn made of ordinary chemical fibers lacks bulkiness and covering property, which makes it difficult to meet the requirement of soft and elastic clothing. However, chemical fibers, especially synthetic fibers, have the characteristics of adjustable and controllable structural properties, and can be fully used to obtain many novel products, such as textured knitting yarns. Its processing principle is a kind of knitting yarn with high bulkiness and elasticity, which is made of the plasticizing and deformation characteristics of synthetic fibers after heating.

There are two forms of knitting yarn formation. One is staple yarn which mainly pursues bulkiness, referred to as bulky knitting yarn. Its characteristics are bulky volume, soft handle, and high compressive elasticity, such as acrylic bulky staple knitting yarn; the other is chemical filament knitting yarn, referred to as elastic knitting yarn, which is mainly in pursuit of elasticity. Under the action of small load external force, it can have greater elongation deformation and deformation recovery ability. 

According to the stretch deformation ability of elastic filament, it can be divided into high-elastic filament and low-elastic filament. 

High-elastic filament is mainly made of nylon filament, which has large stretch elasticity and good covering performance. It is suitable for making tights, sweaters and sweaters, etc. Low-elastic filament is mainly made of polyester filament, and a few of them are made of polypropylene, nylon and other synthetic fibers. Its stretching and deforming ability is much lower than that of high elasticity knitting yarn. It basically provides the appearance effect of ordinary filament knitting yarn, but it has soft touch and can be used as ordinary clothing. 

In addition, there are some textured knitting yarns (such as air textured yarns) made by other texturing methods, which are mostly used to imitate some characteristics of natural fibers to make up for the shortcomings of ordinary synthetic fabric in appearance, texture and durability.
