GSM to Count Conversion

Single Jersey:
Say, the require GSM is 160

Yarn count = (-0.141) X (GSM) + 50.22


= (-0.141) X (160) + 50.22
= -22.58 + 50.22
= 27.66

So, to knit 160 gsm single jersey fabric we need yarn count 27.66/s

Interlock:
Say, the require GSM is 220

Yarn count = (-0.206) X (GSM) + 80.56


= (-0.206) X (220) + 80.56
= -45.32 + 80.56
= 35.24

So, to knit 220 GSM Interlock fabrics we need yarn count 36/s

Pique:
Say, the require GSM is 220

Yarn count = (-0.146) X (GSM) + 57.16


= (-0.146) X (220) + 57.16
= -32.12 + 57.16
= 25.04

So, to knit 220 GSM Pique fabric we need yarn count 36/s

1*1 Rib:
Say, the require GSM is 220

Yarn count = (-0.123) X (GSM) + 54.57


= (-0.123) X (220) + 54.57
= -27.06 + 54.57
= 27.51

So, to knit 220 GSM 1x1 Rib fabrics we need yarn count 28/s

Double Lacoste:
Say, the require GSM is 220

Yarn count = (-0.167) X (GSM) + 64.36


= (-0.167) X (220) + 64.36
= -36.74 + 64.36
= 27.62
So, to knit 220 GSM Double Lacoste fabrics we need yarn count 28/s

Lycra 1×1 Rib:


Let, required fabric GSM is 180

Yarn Count = (-0.119) GSM + 59.12


= (-0.119) x 180 + 59.12
= -21.42 + 59.12
=37.7

Lycra 2x2 Rib:


Say, the require GSM is 220

Yarn count = (-0.108) X (GSM) + 56.62


= (-0.108) X (220) + 56.62
= -23.76 + 56.62
= 32.86

So, to knit 220 GSM Lycra 2x2 Rib fabrics we need yarn count 32/s
