Abstract
A process for the manufacture of slub yarns obtained from continuous filaments, which comprises feeding continuous filaments through the inlet orifice of a guide tube at a feed rate superior to the withdrawal rate at the outlet orifice, and sucking them into a connecting tube by means of a sucking jet in such a manner that an increasingly enlarging open loop is formed; wherein a gaseous medium, in intervals and periods of time programmed by a control system, is blown into the connecting tube, thereby passing through the feeder tube of a blowing jet mounted to the end of the connecting tube which is adjacent to the guide tube; the gaseous medium causing a ligature of the neck of the open loop of the yarn, which loop so ligatured is subsequently united over its total length with the continuous filament.
