| Abstract: | An account is given of a study of the extent to which fibres were pulled through the web during needling that was made by incorporating one layer of coloured fibres at various positions in a 50-layer web. The number of needle locations at which tracer fibres appeared and the number and length of fibres were determined. Further studies of the occurrence of interlocking loops on the surface of a needled fabric are reported. |
