Lesson 28: Dyeing Methods

Package Dyeing

For weaving on powerlooms, yarn is wound onto packages. They can be wound on spools, cones or similar units. These packages are stacked on perforated rods in a rack and then immersed in a tank. Forcing the dye in the tank, helps it to penetrate well. Mostly, carded and combed cotton which are used for knitted outerwear is dyed in this method.
