Various implementations include a method of forming a bulked continuous filament (BCF) yarn. The method includes providing N molten streams of polymer, providing M spinnerets, and spinning the N molten streams of polymer through the M spinnerets. At least a first group of filaments and a second group of filaments are spun through the M spinnerets. The first group of filaments each have a first average denier per filament along a length of the filaments and the second group of filaments each having a second average denier per filament along a length of the filaments, the first and second average denier per filament being different. The method further includes combining the filaments from the M spinnerets together and texturizing the spun filaments.

A yarn making method includes a raw-material yarn; first rollers pulling the raw-material yarn; an entangling point generator subjecting the yarn to jet-forming of entangling points; a cleansing chamber cleansing the yarn that has generated the entangling points; a material chamber provided with a graphene-containing attachment material to be attached to the yarn that has generated the entangling points and has been cleansed; second rollers pulling the yarn that has past the entangling point generator, the cleansing chamber, and the material chamber; a heating chamber having the attachment material secured to the yarn by means of heat-setting; third rollers controlling a heating time of the yarn in the heating chamber; and fourth rollers winding and shaping the processing-completed yarn so as to have the graphene-containing attachment material long preserved in clothing.

In one aspect, a textile component including bulking yarn is disclosed. In embodiments, the textile component is a knitted component. In one embodiment, an article of footwear includes a knitted component arch support configured to reduce the rate of pronation. A support structure may include a fusible yarn adjacent to an external surface of the arch support, a bulking yarn, and a nonfusible yarn. In certain embodiments, an arch support includes compartments and flex lines. In another aspect, an article having a knitted component includes a rigid material, a bulking yarn, and a flexible material. The rigid material may be fusible yarn. Methods for forming a textile component are provided. One embodiment involves knitting a first section comprising a fusible yarn, a second section comprising a bulking yarn, and a third section comprising a nonfusible yarn, and heating.

Multi-component fibers or filaments that are ribbon shaped are provided having polymer components positioned in a side-by-side fashion. For example, the multi-component fibers may be bicomponent fibers having ribbon shape. The polymer components of the fibers are selected to have differential shrinkage behavior. Nonwovens are also provided that are manufactured from such ribbon shaped multi-component fibers or filaments.
