Abstract
The radical changes have been made in textile industry by the advances in science and technology. Now a days clothing is not only for aesthetic and ethical reasons; but also comfort parameters like elasticity, softness, air permeability, thermal insulation and water vapor permeability are expected from garments. Hence the present research study was planned to investigate the effect of yarn count, P/C blend ratios and various knitted fabric structures on comfort properties of the fabric. It was found that all these variables put significant effect on comfort related properties of fabric.
