Textile Knowledge: What is knitted fabric?

Knitted fabric is the use of knitting needles to bend yarn into a circle and interstring the fabric formed.

Warp knitting uses multiple yarns to form a loop along the longitudinal (meridional) side of the cloth, while weft knitting uses one or more yarns to form a loop along the transverse (weft) side of the cloth. Weft knitted knitwear can be formed from at least one yarn, but multiple yarns are used to increase production efficiency. Warp knitted fabric can not form a fabric with a yarn, a yarn can only form a chain formed by a coil. All weft knitted fabrics can be spun against the direction of the weave, but warp knitted fabrics cannot.

Warp knitted fabrics cannot be woven by hand. Weft knitted fabrics have stretchability, edge rolling, defragilability and other warp knitted fabrics because of the formation of the loop knot, the structure is stable, some of the elasticity is very small.
