Abstract
A spun yarn of cotton (35 wt %-80 wt %) and a bicomponent staple fiber (20wt%-65wt%) of poly(ethylene terephthalate) and poly(trimethylene terephthalate) based on total weight of the spun yarn. The spun yarn has a total boil-off shrinkage of about 22%. The bicomponent staple fiber component has a tow crimp development value of about 35%-70%; a tow crimp index value of about 14%-45%; a length of about 1.3-5.5 cm; and a linear density of about 0.7-3.0 decitex per fiber. The difference between the crimp index and the crimp development values is about 24%-35% absolute.
