SIZE IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM FOR BED SHEETS AND THE LIKE

摘要

A size-identification system for bed sheets and the like is developed at t he stage of weaving the greige fabric from which the bed sheets are made. One woven greige fabric (12) has a colored warp yarn (14') in a selvage (20). A bed sheet (24) made from the fabric (12) has a selvage (26) which includes a colored warp yarn (30). Another woven greige fabric (38) has a plurality of colored filling yarns (44'), with each filling yarn (44') being spaced a predetermined distance from an adjacent filling yarn (44') along the length of the fabric (38), so as to have one of the yarns (44') located in a preselected section of a bed sheet (50) made from the fabric (38). A bed sheet (50) made from the fabric (38) has a colored filling yarn (64) located in a lower-end section (58) of the bed she et (50).
