2. Description of the Related Art A method of imparting antibacterial properties to a material has hitherto been used today. For example, there is a method in which a fiber material, a fiber cloth, a sheet or the like is subjected to a surface treatment with an antibacterial substance. However, although this method can impart antibacterial performance, there is a problem that the durability of the antibacterial performance is poor. As a method of solving this, there is a method in which an active antibacterial substance is mixed and kneaded in a manufacturing process of a fiber material such as nylon or polyester. However, although this method shows a certain antibacterial performance, it is costly. In general, many antibacterial agents themselves have a certain degree of toxicity, which poses a safety problem.

Example 4 A poly L-lactic acid resin having an optical purity of 99.0%, an MFR of 20 g / 10 min and a melting point of 172 ° C. was melted, and a spinning temperature of 220 ° C.
Melt spinning was performed from a spinneret having 36 holes at a temperature of ° C and a single hole discharge rate of 0.88 g / min. Next, the spun yarn is cooled by a cooling device, and a spinning oil agent containing 20% by weight of polyethylene glycol monooleate having a molecular weight of 600 is applied. The drawing temperature is 120 ° C., the drawing ratio is 1.53, and the speed is 400.
Winding was performed at 0 m / min to obtain a multifilament (spin draw yarn) of 75 denier / 36 filaments. The amount of the oil agent adhering to the fiber was 0.6% by weight.
Then, using the obtained multifilament, the number of stitches was 2
Knitting was performed with a 70-tube knitting machine (manufactured by Koike Seisakusho).
