Abstract
A machine knittable hybrid yarn is disclosed. The hybrid yarn includes one or more electrically non-conductive yarns and two or more electrically conductive wires wrapped around the electrically non-conductive yarns. The electrically conductive wires have an exterior layer of an insulated material. The electrically non-conductive yarns include a majority fraction of an overall cross-section of the hybrid yarn. The two or more electrically conductive wires are wrapped around the one or more electrically non-conductive yarns at between 1 and 15 twists per inch. The one or more electrically non-conductive yarns are 1500 denier or finer.
