Count variation Effect on physical properties of Single jersey Cotton-elastane knitted Fabric

This paper deals with the result of an investigation by using different count yarn but same parameters of knitting machine to produce cotton-elastane single jersey fabric. Here,the all parameters of knitting machine including gauge, dia ,Stitch length, rpm, machine tension etcare same. Dyeing process also carried out at same parameter for all fabrics. Finishing process like Heat setting, Stentering, compacting are done in same condition But we use different count cotton yarn. In this paper, we mainly deal with the physical properties of single jersey cotton fabric. we try to identify how the properties of single jersey knitted fabric like fabric diameter(gray& finished condition) ,WPI&CPI(gray& finished condition),Fabric GSM(gray& finished condition),Shrinkage (%) length &width wise, spiralityare changing with Count .Finally the findings are as expected with some variation with the result that are thought theoretically.
