72F of yarn count?
The first number of a yarn count (D) generally indicates the fineness of the yarn (how thick it is). The second number (F) indicates the fluffiness or hairiness of the yarn. The last number indicates the number of plies in the yarn. Example: 75D/72F/2 is a 75 denier (75 g/9000m), 2-ply yarn with a hairiness or fluff index of 72. The fluff index becomes important in weaving where it can change the optical effects of the woven fabric. There are several different systems for measuring yarn hairiness.
