A). Tex: Weight of yarn in gm present in 1000 meter length. It is a universal system of counting the yarn.
B). Denier: Weight of yarn in gm present in 9000 meter length. It is basically used for man made fiber.
C) Pounds Per Spindle: Weight of yarn in lbs present in 1440 yards length.
- Indirect System ( Weight Fixed):
A). English Cotton Count: No. of hanks of 840 yds present in 1 lb of yarn.
B) Metric Count: No. of hanks of 1000 meters present in 1 kg of yarn.
