Abstract
There are more than 42 Sheep breeds in India. These breeds have generally been named after their place of origin, or on the basis of prominent characteristics. In this research paper, some south Indian Bellary breed sheep and Hassan breed sheep wool are considered. Bellary breeds sheep and Hassan breed sheep wool is courser in nature. The Indian Bellary breed sheep and Hassan breed sheep woolen fibers are used, to produce hand spun yarns. The Bellary breed wool is blended with polyester fibers, to make blended yarn. The regular woolen yarns produced by the local hand spinners are studied. The effect of blend on Bellary breed wool with polyester is also studied. The study shows that, the Bellary breed wool, polyester blended hand spun yarns have high strength and elongation.
