A certain level of hairiness in yarn is generally acknowledged as unavoidable because of the practical limitations of mechanical processing machines. Spinners are therefore interested to know the effect of fiber properties on yarn hairiness when selecting suitable raw materials. The literature on parameters such as fiber fineness and short fibre percent reports contradictory trends, while the influence on hairiness of other param eters such as uniformity ratio and fiber quality index is not considered. In this paper, we have investigated the influence of fiber characteristics on the hairiness of cotton yarns.
