Coarse yak fibre remained underutilized due to its higher stiffness, lower coefficient of friction, and deep black in color. Such fibre was chemically modified to change its color similar to jute fibre. After modification the co-efficient of friction improved to 0.368 from 0.280 in the untreated sample. The improvement in co-efficient of friction and color increased the acceptability of blending of yak fibre with jute fibre. It was possible to blend 75% yak fibre with jute after suitable modification. Jute/yak fibres blended yarns were converted into plain woven fabrics as weft and polyester spun yarn as a warp.
