Abstract
An apparatus for forming a blended yarn from a plurality of yarn strands is disclosed, and wherein the yarns are advanced to contact the surface of a feed roll in a side by side arrangement. A guide roll for each of the yarn strands is positioned upstream of the feed roll, and one or more of the guide rolls has a circumferential configuration which serves to repeatedly move the advancing yarn strands relative to each other so that the strands laterally cross each other on the surface of the feed roll in a predetermined pattern.
