Abstract

See full text

A yarn is produced having a functional core and a covering. The core is either an active functional core having electronic components or passive components and may be monofilament or multifilament. The core and covering are introduced together such that the covering protects the core and gives the core a more comfortable feel such that the yarn may be used in textile applications. The core may be covered by various spinning methods such as air jet or Vortex air jet spinning, ring spinning, open end, or friction spinning. The yarn may also be processed in a single or double covering operation. In one embodiment, the yarn is woven into clothing.
