knitting is a fabric formed by bending the yarns into loops with knitting needles and stringing them together. knitting is divided into weft knitted fabric and warp knitted fabric. at present, knitted fabrics are widely used in clothing fabrics and linings, home textiles and other products, and are favored by consumers.
characteristics of knitted fabrics
①scalability. knitted fabrics are made of yarns that are bent into loops and are intertwined. the loops have a large expansion room up and down and left and right. therefore, they have good elasticity, fit and carry the body when wearing, comfortable and convenient, and suitable for stretching when the human body moves. bending and other requirements.
②softness. the raw materials used in knitted garment fabrics are fluffy and soft yarns with low twist. the surface of the fabric has a layer of tiny suede, and the tissue composed of loops is loose and porous, which reduces the friction between the skin and the surface of the fabric during wearing. gives a sense of comfort and tenderness.
③hygroscopicity and air permeability. because the loops that make up the knitted fabric are intertwined, numerous isolated air pockets are formed inside the fabric, which has good warmth retention and air permeability.
④ anti-wrinkle. when the knitted fabric is subjected to a wrinkle external force, the loop can be transferred to adapt to the deformation when the force is applied; when the wrinkle force disappears, the transferred yarn can quickly recover and maintain the original state.
