Definition from own experience or research:
Bandingsgarner eller blandingstekstiler er fremstillet af flere typer garner. Ofte blandes både natur- og syntetiske materialer for at kombinere begge råmaterialers styrke, f. eks. bomuldens hudvenlighed og svedabsorbering med syntetiske garners strygevenlighed = strygefri bomuld.

Example sentence(s):
  • Dejlig blandingsgarn i bomuld og hør. Hørret giver en helt speciel duft og det færdige arbejde en fin glans, som holder faconen. - Garnværkstedet  
  • Der findes flere typer blandingstekstiler. Ofte er det uld eller bomuld, som er blandet med polyester, elastan, (også kaldet spandex) eller nylon for bedre at holde formen, og for at forbedre pasformen og give stoffet ekstra elasticitet. Når du skal pleje denne slags tekstiler, bør du gå ud fra hovedtekstilet, når du skal bestemme temperatur. Består størstedelen af tøjet eksempelvis af uld, er det bedst at vaske det, som om det var ren uld. Det gør, at tøjet holder længere og ikke kryber. Tænk også over, om opblandingen skal stryges ved lavere temperatur! - Paspåtøjet.dk
