The fineness of yarn is called yarn count. Yarns used for fabrics are either thick or thin. This thickness is usually expressed by count (metric count Nm, imperial count Ne), and also has numbers (tex) and Represented by denier (D).
The higher the count, the thinner the yarn, the lower the count, the thicker the yarn. The finer the yarn, the lighter and thinner the fabric will be, and its appearance will be tight, delicate, smooth, soft, and uniform in color. The lighter the processed garment will be, the higher the grade will be. The thicker the yarn, the heavier the fabric will be, and the appearance of the finished product will be higher. The texture is thicker and the fabric strength is better.
Spinning high-count yarn and weaving light and thin fabrics has been a development trend in the clothing industry in recent years. High-count combed cotton shirts, high-end light and thin wool fabrics, etc. have gradually become high-quality clothing.
