A photometric method measuring the bulkness and the distribution of fibers in yarn is described. This method is based on the measuring the intensity of the transmitting light which is projected on a sample yarn through a narrow slit, and the above operation is repeated continuously moving the slit along the lateral direction of the yarn. Some of morphological characteristics obtained by this method for some textured yarns are similar to those acquired by other methods.
