ABSTRACT:
Mops and process for making closed or uncut end mops particularly using single ply cotton yarn having a high degree of twist. The yarn is processed through a fringe making machine into lengths of pre-sewn fringe or processed through a wet mop making machine and the high twist yarn tends to bunch together in thick, ropy masses of yarn strands. The fringe is either affixed to mop backs or affixed together in the middle to form a mop, and the mops are then soaked in a high temperature water bath until the ropy yarn strands relax, straighten and separate. The mops are rinsed and transferred to a high temperature hot air dryer and dried until the separate yarn strands twist about their looped ends to form separate, individual doubled ply yarn strands with uncut ends.
