What Is Combed Cotton? Benefits, Differences & Uses
Combed cotton is cotton that receives an additional combing treatment after carding and before spinning. This process removes some short fibers, neps, and remaining impurities while improving fiber alignment. Compared with otherwise similar carded yarn, combed cotton generally produces smoother, more uniform yarn with less hairiness. It is often chosen for comfortable T-shirts, underwear, premium jersey, and printed knitwear where a clean surface matters.
