This collection covers vortex spun yarns for knitting, offered in cotton/polyester blends, 100% polyester and 100% viscose. Counts range from NE 20/1 to NE 36/1 depending on composition, all supplied in raw colour. The range is intended for mills and suppliers sourcing consistent vortex yarn for knitted fabric production.

Available Compositions and Counts

Cotton/Polyester 30/70 in NE 24/1, NE 30/1 and NE 36/1. Cotton/Polyester 50/50 in NE 20/1, NE 24/1, NE 28/1 and NE 30/1. 100% Polyester in NE 20/1 and NE 30/1. 100% Viscose in NE 20/1, NE 24/1 and NE 30/1. All items are supplied in raw colour.

Spinning Method and Properties

Vortex spinning is an air-jet based process that produces yarn with a compact structure and relatively low hairiness compared to open-end spinning, while differing from ring spun yarn in terms of surface characteristics and fibre arrangement. The process is suited to shorter processing sequences and can run efficiently across cotton/polyester blends as well as 100% polyester and 100% viscose. Yarn evenness and reduced pilling tendency are commonly associated with vortex spun structures, making them a practical choice where a cleaner yarn surface is required at production speed.

Typical End Uses

These vortex yarns are intended for knitted fabric applications, covering both blended and single-fibre compositions across the available count range. Buyers working across weaving as well as knitting may also review the Woven Vortex collection, or explore other spinning methods in Open-End and Ring yarn ranges.
