Pilling is a common surface defect in fleece fabrics made of chief value cotton (CVC) and polyester cotton (PC). The term "Chief Value Cotton" refers to fabrics produced by mixing cotton and synthetic fiber such as polyester where cotton typically makes up more than half of the overall combination of polyester. Customers nowadays want polyester cotton blended fleece fabric with excellent pilling resistance, but it is difficult to improve pilling properties in polyester cotton blended fleece fabric. A variety of studies have been conducted to improve the pilling properties of single jersey CVC knit fabric. The primary goal of this study is to eliminate pilling in fleece fabrics made of three-thread polyester cotton blends. In this analysis, singeing with a heat setting was used to increase pilling resistance. According to this experimental study, the pilling resistance properties improve from grade 1 to grade 4, which is extraordinary. This method can be used to successfully solve the pilling problem in three thread polyester cotton blended fleece fabrics in the textile knitting industry.

The main components of a polo shirt are the body and collar. For different body measurements, different collar sizes are needed. It is very crucial to select the perfect collar size according to body size; otherwise, collar size will be larger or smaller than the required size. However, producing and maintaining perfect collar size concerning body size is very tough as the collar is tiny. If the finished collar size is larger or smaller than the appropriate size, the manufacturer is supposed attach the incorrectly measured collar to the body, placing the customer at risk of a vital quality argument. Otherwise, the manufacturer would have to remake the collar, wasting both time and money. Sometimes, the knitting industry has to deal with purchase order cancellations due to a lack of lead time for replication. To avoid the complexities described earlier, quantitative equations for collar production based on the number of ply, stitch duration, and needle count were established in this study. The precision of this exploration work is approximately 100 percent for matching exact collar size with body size. As a result, the evolved technique can be used in the textile knitting industry to ensure that accurate specifications are met the first time.

Ligno-cellulosic natural fiber like Banana can be acclimated to manufacture hybrid or union fabric with mostly used jute fiber which can get colossal popularity as a wearable product because of the health and hygiene issues. Banana fibers, extracted from the sheath, can be utilized for manufacturing fiber, can diminish the pressure on the jute fiber. It will be very frugal, and ineluctably it will be a great opportunity to blend it with the other natural fiber. In this study, a Jute-Banana hybrid fabric (JBHF) was developed by using Jute yarn (12 Ne, in warp) and Banana yarn (18 Ne, in weft). In order to evaluate physico-mechanical properties of naturally dyed Jute-Banana hybrid fabric, different tests like Stiffness, Thickness, Tensile strength, Tear strength, Drape and Crease recovery were conducted which provided satisfactory results. Colorfastness to wash, water, rubbing and perspiration of naturally dyed Jute-Banana hybrid fabrics (JBHF) also provided acceptable outcomes. FTIR test also provided the confirmation of this two fibers and Spectrophotometer was used to illustrate the dyeing quality. It was an endeavor to minimize the dependency on a single quality fiber and find an alternative way to prepare the hybrid fabric by blending two different quality natural fibers.
