摘要

The purpose of this development was to determine the optimum fabrication techniques and pattern changes required for construction of lightweight Air Force Blue 1084 service uniforms fabricated from a blend of polyester and wool of 58 percent polyester and 42 percent wool to be worn by male Air Force personnel. Four polyester wool blend fabrics were employed in this program. They consisted of two weights, 8 1/2 and 9 1/2 ounce, 56 inches wide. Two fabrics were yarn dyed and two were piece dyed. (Author)
