Fabric hand, an important characteristic to the textile industry, i sinfluenced by such fiber parameters as flexural rigidity and friction and by yarn parameters such as count, twist, CV, hairiness, stiffness, and softness. This study deals primarily with predicting the softness of knitted T-shirts from yarn quality parameters. The work consists of a short literatrue review on the existing yarn parameters as well as fabric hand evaluation and prediction techniques. The latest developments in measuring the roughness of textile material surfaces are also covered.
