The factors that influence the properties of spandex/cotton core-spun yarns are introduced. The pre-drafting multiple of spandex is an important parameter that influences the yarn properties such as elasticity,breaking force, breaking elongation and costs. The experiment with different pre-drafting multiple isdesigned. The effects of pre-drafting multiple on yarn properties are evaluated by fuzzy mathematical decision.3.3 is the optimum pre-drafting multiple for 14.6tex +40D spandex/cotton core-spun yarns. At this multiple,the spandex content is proper and the spandex core is less prone to breakage. The cotton fibers wrap spandex more closely and transfer more frequently between inside and outside.
