Best Answer

Each of the fiber has it's own properties - both (i) benefiting to end user and (ii) does not contribute to the performance expected by ed user. Few fibers have good strength but does not have comfort and warmth, e.g. synthetic fibers like polyester, nylon. Few fibers are very comfortable, warming, absorptive, but does not have good strength. e.g. Cottons or natural fibers. Blending of fiber allows to offer end user the properties expected in terms of strength, feel, comfort, warmth, absorption, thermal properties, etc. This also allows to manufacturer to utilise the fibers for their dye/colour uptake properties and offer customer / end user a wide range of choice for colours / prints.
