    Abstract: A hybrid yarn and a fabric including the hybrid yarn are provided. The hybrid yarn is formed of a plurality of fibers of a plurality of different fiber compositions. The fibers of different configurations are homogenized and intimate with one another throughout the yarn. The yarn may be formed using fibers made of the same material or a plurality of different materials. The different fiber compositions may include fibers of three or more different cross sections, fibers made of different materials or a combination of the two. Fibers having tips or ends are made so that the tips are rounded rather than squared to improve the manufacture and quality of the yarn. The materials may be synthetic and/or natural materials. Fabrics made with the hybrid yarn will have selectable functional features and also be of lighter weight than previously possible.
