The amount of fabric produced from a silk and Pima cotton blend depends on the weight and type of fabric being produced. Here's a rough calculation:
1. **Silk Yield**: From 1 pound of cocoons, you get about 0.2 to 0.3 pounds of raw silk.
2. **Blending with Pima Cotton**: To create a 50/50 blend, you need an equal weight of Pima cotton to match the weight of the silk.
- If you have 0.2 pounds of silk, you'll need 0.2 pounds of Pima cotton.
- If you have 0.3 pounds of silk, you'll need 0.3 pounds of Pima cotton.
3. **Total Fiber Weight**:
- For 0.2 pounds of silk and 0.2 pounds of Pima cotton, you have a total of 0.4 pounds of blended fiber.
- For 0.3 pounds of silk and 0.3 pounds of Pima cotton, you have a total of 0.6 pounds of blended fiber.
4. **Fabric Yield**: The yield of fabric from the fiber depends on the fabric's weight (usually measured in grams per square meter, gsm). Let's assume an average fabric weight of 150 gsm for a medium-weight fabric.
- 1 pound = 453.6 grams.
- For 0.4 pounds of blended fiber: \( 0.4 \text{ pounds} \times 453.6 \text{ grams/pound} = 181.44 \text{ grams} \).
- For 0.6 pounds of blended fiber: \( 0.6 \text{ pounds} \times 453.6 \text{ grams/pound} = 272.16 \text{ grams} \).
- To find the area of fabric produced, divide the total grams by the fabric weight per square meter (150 gsm):
- For 181.44 grams of blended fiber: \( \frac{181.44 \text{ grams}}{150 \text{ gsm}} = 1.21 \text{ square meters} \).
- For 272.16 grams of blended fiber: \( \frac{272.16 \text{ grams}}{150 \text{ gsm}} = 1.81 \text{ square meters} \).
So, from 1 pound of cocoons, blended 50/50 with Pima cotton, you can expect to get approximately 1.21 to 1.81 square meters (or about 1.4 to 2.2 square yards) of medium-weight fabric.
