Abstract

Three types of cotton fibers were used in producing a wide range of yams. Count, twist factor, spinning parameters was varied at different levels. Twenty two plain and twill fabrics were produced from these yams. All fabrics were dyed under the same conditions with Ciba reactive dye Blue-3G.E. The effect of fiber, yam and fabric variables on colour measurements was Investigated. Hue, Chroma, Lightness, Colour Strength and colour depth was measured. It was found that cotton type, spinning process, count, twist multiplier and fabric structure affect significantly colour measurements.
