Disclosed are a method, a device and/or a system of proliferating a thread count of a woven textile by simultaneous insertion within a single pick insertion event of a loom apparatus multiple adjacent parallel yarns drawn from a multi-pick yarn package. In one or more embodiments, multiple texturized polyester weft yarns of denier between 15 and 65 are wound on a single bobbin in a parallel adjacent fashion such that they may be fed into an air jet pick insertion apparatus and/or a rapier pick insertion apparatus of an air jet loom to weave a textile that has between 90 to 235 ends per inch cotton warp yarns and between 100 and 1410 polyester weft yarns.

A flame resistant textile containing a plurality of warp yarns in a warp direction of the textile interwoven with a plurality of weft yarns in the weft direction approximately perpendicular to the warp direction. The warp yarns contain inherent FR polyester yarns having between about 1500 and 3500 ppm of a phosphorous based FR chemistry and the weft yarns contain polyester yarns. the textile contains more weft yarns by weight than warp yarns and wherein the FR textile contain about 1500 ppm or less of the phosphorous based FR chemistry.

A method includes drawing a roving thread from a roving bobbin through a roving guide, an aft drafting roller, and a mid drafting roller to a front drafting roller, and drawing a spandex core from a spandex bobbin using a guide roller. The method also includes associating the roving thread and the spandex core by drawing the roving thread and the spandex core in an approximately parallel fashion through the front drafting roller, and drawing the associated roving thread and the spandex core through a lappet hook and an anti-ballooning guide. Further, the method includes winding the drawn associated roving thread and the spandex core on a ring-frame bobbin including a ring traveler attached to a rotatable ring. The circular motion of the ring traveler around the ring-frame bobbin causes the drawn associated roving thread to twist around the drawn associated spandex core, forming a core spun yarn.

A pillowcase includes a top panel and an opposite bottom panel. The top panel has three sides that are joined with three sides of the bottom panel such that inner surfaces of the top and bottom panels that face one another define a cavity configured for disposal of a pillow. Fourth sides of the top and bottom panels are not joined with one another and define an opening that is in communication with the cavity. A power band extends across the opening. The power band includes a sheen.

A fabric made by the method of providing a non-woven batt having flame retardant fibers, stitch bonding the non-woven batt with an elastic yarn, and heat setting the stitch bonded, non-woven batt. The stich bonded non-woven batt is exposed to a temperature in a range of 65 C. to 200 C. for a period in a range of 30 seconds to 120 seconds. In an embodiment, the fabric is adapted for use as a mattress core cover

Self-regulating insulative batting is provided. The batting includes a blend of a plurality of fibers including functional fibers and non-functional fibers. The plurality of fibers are non-woven and oriented substantially vertically along a thickness direction of the batting. The functional fibers are configured to self-regulate at least one insulative quality of the batting based on changes in at least one environmental condition interacting with the batting. At least one of the length and thickness of the functional fibers changes based on changes in at least one environmental condition interacting with the batting. Articles comprising the self-regulating batting and methods of making the self-regulating batting are also provided.

A cooling material includes opposite top and bottom surfaces and a central portion positioned between the top and bottom surfaces. The top surface includes a first fiber. The bottom surface includes a second fiber. The middle portion includes the first and second fibers and a third fiber. Methods of manufacture are included.

A comforter has a first fabric sheet and a second fabric sheet. Each of the fabric sheets include a knit cover layer formed from a base yarn, and knitted into this base layer is a fibrous fluffy yarn in such a manner that a looped pile results. The looped pile is then sheared to create a cut pile nap. The first and second fabric sheets are stitched together around a perimeter with perimeter stitching to contain a fill material between the first and second fabric sheets and within the perimeter stitching. The first and second fabric sheets are also stitched together via lateral stitching that extends laterally at least partially across the comforter at spaced longitudinal intervals, so that the first and second fabric sheets are connected via the longitudinal stitching and movement of the fill material is constrained.

A textile graphene component thermal fiber, or filament yarn, is able to be integrated into a textile, for example performance knits, woven and non-woven garments and linens, in order to conduct absorb or emit heat in order to regulate the body temperature for a user. The textile graphene component thermal fiber is able to absorb thermal energy and optimally conduct the thermal energy for extended periods of time. The textile graphene component thermal fiber includes a quantity of polymers, a first quantity of graphene, and a second quantity of graphene The quantity of polymers and the first quantity of graphene are mixed into a polymeric sheath. The second quantity of graphene and the quantity of thermally conductive substances are mixed into a thermal-conducting core. The polymeric sheath encloses the thermal conducting core in order to form the textile bi-component thermal fiber.

A zoned bed sheet is provided that includes opposite first and second vertical sidewalls. The sheet includes opposite third and fourth vertical sidewalls that each extend between the first and second vertical sidewalls. A horizontal wall extends between the first and second vertical sidewalls and between the third and fourth vertical sidewalls. The horizontal wall includes a plurality of zones. The zones are spaced apart from one another by a first material. The zones each include a material that is different than the first material.
