those of natural latex though a natural latex can be used thus the core of the corespun yarn imparts to the yarn and the resulting fabric a considerable degree of stretch and recovery of course any resilient continuous filament yarn can comprise the core of the corespun yarn cotton fiber is then spun about the core to cover the core in its entirety thus the core of a resilient continuous filament yarn is not exposed and will not come into contact with the cotton yarn with which the corespun yarn is knit it is therefore clear that the combination of yarns in accordance with the present invention renders a knit fabric having a large percentage of cotton thus imparting to the fabric all the advantages and benefits of cotton yet the fabric made with the present combination of yarns also possesses the desirable properties and characteristics of resilient yarns by virtue of the spandex core of the corespun yarn more specifically the preferred embodiment of the corespun yarn in accordance with the present invention is comprised of approximately ninety percent 90 cotton yarn and ten percent 10 spandex yarn overall the fabric knit with the cotton and corespun is ninety seven percent 97 cotton and three percent 3 spandex the cotton yarn comprising seventy percent 70 of the fabric and the corespun yarn comprising thirty percent 30 of the fabric this high percentage of cotton facilitates the dyeing of the fabric as cotton is easily dyed in a single bath dyeing process the high percentage of cotton is also soft next to the skin.
