For making woven sheeting material cotton, polyester, viscose rayon, and their blends are mostly preferred. But these sheeting materials when used as hygiene purpose we should ensure comfort level of the human. Also, the fabric to be engineered with specific comfort properties based on their end use applications. But no effort has been made to make new textile materials that could help in reducing the discomfort experienced by the human. Textile woven sheeting products finds applications in various sector like home textile, hospital textiles. They are used in the form of blankets, bed covers, bed throws, pillow covers, bedspreads. For making a new sheeting woven material the industry is trying to use a for made up of blend of fibres. It is mostly practiced in industry to utilize the properties of fibres to the maximum extent in one yarn. The main property expected for a sheeting material it should provide warmth and softness to the end user. Also the sheeting material should be durable and long lasting. To make sheeting woven fabric of having this property the cotton is blended with linen to enhance the comfort nature of the product. By blending with linen the fabric exhibits a soft feel , lusture. Also the linen blended material yields good drape and aesthetic property to the final product. The tensile strength of the fabric also very much improved by using linen. The frictional coefficient of the linen blended fabric also in a lower state which makes the fabric more flexible. The research work is carried out with the aim of producing a sheeting material using the yarn made from cotton, lyocell, modal and viscose with various blend proportion. The structure of the sheeting fabric was kept as plain weave structure. To find the behaviour of the sheeting material under low stress the sheeting material was analyzed using KWBS. The total handle also been analyzed to find the suitability of the sheeting material for a specific end use application.
