An apparatus and method for uniformly crimping yarn by passing a yarn through a confined crimping zone and providing means in the crimping zone for interrupting the flow of steam streams against opposed sides of the yarn. Each steam stream intermittently contacts the yarn at uniformly spaced portions along the length of the yarn with one steam stream contacting the yarn at a medial location between the contacting locations of the other steam stream. The yarn is thereafter cooled and recovered in a relaxed condition.
