Summary:PURPOSE:To produce a soft knitted fabric with low air permeability by shrink treatment of a knitted fabric comprising composite yarns consisting of conjugate fibers made up of sheath and core components having specific physical properties and cellulose-based staples. CONSTITUTION:This knitted fabric is obtained by shrink treatment of a gray knitted fabric prepared by using composite yarns (manufactured by spinning and twisting) composed of 20-70wt.% of conjugate yarns made up of core component consisting of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer-saponified product having 30-70mol% of ethylene content and >=95% in saponification degree and polyamide sheath component 2.60 in relative viscosity (pref. nylon 6) at the weight ratio of (1:0.4) to (1:2.4) and 80-30wt.% of cellulose-based staples (pref. cotton). This knitted fabric is low in air permeability, having excellent water-absorptivity and hygroscopicity, being free from stuffy feeling and also good in touch feeling.
