For example, let us consider finding the yarn count for the given values.
wales per inch w = 10
stich length s = 20mm
course per inch = 15
fabric gsm = 3
Applying the values in the formula,
n = (Wales per Inch x Stitch Length x Course per Inch x 0.9155) / GSM
n = (10 x 20 x 15 x 0.9155)/3
n = 2746.5 / 3
n = 915.5
Therefore, the count value is 915.5
