Denim fabrics are in general manufactured by using 100% cotton fibers. A novel attempt has been made by using bamboo/cotton yarns in warp and weft directions to produce denim fabrics using ring yarns in warp and rotor yarns in weft directions. In this research work, bamboo/cotton yarns are manufactured in different blend compositions like 100% bamboo, 100% cotton,70:30, 50:50 and 30:70 ratios. Ne 10 and Ne 16 carded yarns are manufactured from both the ring and rotor spinning systems. The yarns manufactured out of these two spinning systems have been critically analyzed for their quality characteristics like Unevenness, Imperfections, Hairiness, friction, abrasion, strength and elongation. The influence of blend ratios on yarn quality characteristics in ring and rotor yarns has been analyzed and the optimum blend proportion which gives the best quality has been investigated.
