The wool of Magra and Bikaneri Chokla sheep of the northwest Rajasthan have similar qualities and known as ideal carpet wool. However, Bikaneri chokla wool is more preferred by carpet manufacturers compared to Magra wool due to its lustre. The Magra and Bikaneri Chokla wool and their blends with nylon in proportion of 90:10 were spun on woolen spinning system to produce yarns of 3.5 to 4 Nm linear densities. The yarns were converted into hand knotted carpet of 100 knots/ inch2. The resiliency was 22% higher in pure Magra carpet than Bikaneri Chokla. The pile abrasion loss was more in Magra carpet but it was within acceptable limits. The pile contraction under dynamic loading was higher in Magra carpet. The study suggested that blending of nylon with wool significantly influenced the resiliency, pile contraction and relaxed recovery under dynamic loading.
