However, it has been difficult to form a structure having a substantially uniform polishing power for each polished cross section.

Recently, fibrous polishing fibers (for example, alumina fibers and silicon carbide fibers) have been used as abrasives instead of the above-mentioned abrasive grains, and the polishing fibers are contained in a state substantially parallel to the length direction of the polishing yarn. By doing so, it has become possible to make the appearance rates of the polishing fibers in each polishing cross section substantially equal, and thereby it is possible to secure a sufficient polishing force as a polishing base material.
