A method and apparatus for producing interlaced multifilament yarn having an improved configuration is disclosed. When a material yarn is treated by the interlacing apparatus provided with an interlacing nozzle wherein a hollow longitudinal space is formed therein and a jetted fluid is introduced into the hollow longitudinal space, the jet fluid is directed to an axis of the passage of a running yarn in the longitudinal space along a direction substantially perpendicular to the axis of the yarn passage in such a condition that the jet fluid is diffused to a direction along the yarn passage. Accordingly, the individual filaments of the running yarn are vibrated about the axis of the running yarn passage, mainly along a plane defined by the axis of the yarn passage and the axis of a fluid conduit for supplying the jet fluid. According to such effective vibration of the individual filaments, a very stable interlaced configuration of the individual filaments can be created. If the material multifilament yarn is false twisted previous to the interlacing treatment, a more stable interlaced configuration of individual filaments can be created. The thus produced interlaced multifilament yarn has such superior property that the degree of interlacing is increased by repeated stretch action and, consequently, the multifilament yarn thus produced is very suitable for use as a warp yarn without any additional twisting or sizing operation. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1. An interlaced multifilament yarn produced by a fluid treatment operation utilizing jetting fluid, said yarn being provided with such property that the degree of interlacing of individual filaments of said multifilament yarn is increased: by imparting repeated stretching action to said yarn, and conducting said repeated stretching action under a yarn tension between 0. 1-1. 0 g/d. 2. An interlaced multifilament yarn according to claim 1, wherein: said yarn has interlaced portions and opened portions, said degree of interlacing is more than 80, and the ratio in percent of the number of said opened yarn portions having a length exceeding 1. 5 times the average length of said opened yarn portions is not higher than 20%. 3. An interlaced multifilament yarn according to claim 1, wherein said yarn is a thermoplastic synthetic multifilament yarn, and each individual filament is provided with rubbed and scratched portions randomly distributed along the axis thereof. 4. An interlaced multifilament yarn according to claim 1, wherein: said yarn is a thermoplastic yarn, and each individual filament has crimps formed by a previous false twisting treatment. 5. An interlaced multifilament yarn according to claim 1, wherein said multifilament yarn is composed of at least two different multifilament yarns. 6. An interlaced multifilament yarn according to claim 1, suitable for use as a warp yarn without additional twisting or sizing operation and having a high gathering property of individual filaments in the process of manufacturing a fabric therefrom, wherein: during said fluid treatment operation the jetted fluid is first dispersed and then thereafter jetted against the running yarn during said manufacturing process to substantially vibrate the individual filaments of the yarn in a plane defined by said yarn running direction and the fluid jetting direction. 7. An interlaced multifilament yarn according to claim 1, wherein said fluid is jetted with a pressure in the range of 0
