Knitted fabric:
There are 3 types of stuff i.e. woven fabric, knitted stuff as well as nonwoven fabric. Knitted fabric is produced past times knitting process. There are 2 types of knitted fabrics: weft-knitted as well as warp-knitted. Fashion designers dearest knit stuff for its comfort, texture, wrinkle resistance, as well as elasticity. It is slowly to run upwards amongst the correct machine as well as stitching technique.

The factors on which the character of knitted stuff depends on:
- Courses per cm
- Wales per cm
- Stitch density per cm²
- Shape gene (Wale spacing : Course spacing)
- Stitch density
- Tightness gene K = √(tex/l)
- Area density
- Kc (Constant) = Courses per cm × Stitch length inwards mm
- Kw (Constant) = Wales per cm × Stitch length inwards mm
- Ks (Constant) = Loops per expanse × Stitch length squared inwards mm²
- Loop sort factor= Kc × Kw
Fabric character (knitted fabric) depends on the next factors equally stated below:
(a) Yarn variables:
The yarn variables which influence knitted stuff character are:
- Yarn forcefulness
- Yarn count
- Yarn type
- Yarn evenness
- Yarn twist
- Yarn extensibility
- Yarn rigidness
- Yarn finishing treatment.
The machine variables which acquit upon knitted stuff character are:
- Machine guess
- Machine speed
- Needle gaiting
- Needle Timing
- Cam pattern or cam organisation
- Needle organisation
- Knitting elements
- Take downwards organisation
The knitting variables are:
- Input tension
- Positive feed
The stuff variables are:
- Fabric pattern
- Fabric construction
- Fabric halt use.
- Fiber fineness
- Staple length
- Cross sectional sort
- Specific gravity
- Flexural rigidity
- Torsional rigidity
- Load-extension human relationship
- Strength
- Elastic recovery
- Resistance to abrasion
- Friction
Some states of knitted fabrics are mentioned below:
1. Off machine state:
This is the nation of knitted stuff inwards which it is obtained only later production from knitting machine.
2. Dry relaxed state:
The nation of knitted stuff which is obtained later keeping it at 27°c ± 2°c temperature for 24-72 hours.
3. Fully relaxed state:
The nation of knitted stuff which is obtained later washing it amongst detergent as well as and then drying as well as keeping inwards criterion atmosphere.
4. Finished state:
The nation of knitted stuff which is obtained later dyeing as well as finishing.
