Tips about knitwear

Knitwear apparel is a process product that uses knitting needles to form loops of various raw materials and yarns, and then connects them to form a knitted fabric, that is, clothes knitted by knitting needles. Its texture is soft, has good wrinkle resistance and breathability, and has greater extensibility and elasticity, and is comfortable to wear.

Generally speaking, knitted sweaters refer to garments woven with knitting equipment. Therefore, under normal circumstances, clothes knitted with wool, cotton, and various chemical fiber materials are all knitted sweaters, which include sweaters. Even the sweatshirts and stretch shirts that people generally say are actually knitted, so there are also knitted T-shirts. However, due to habit, many people regard knitted sweaters as ordinary thin sweaters. This is a big misunderstanding.

Knitting is divided into two types: manual knitting and machine knitting. Basically, the products sold in the market are all machine-knitted. Hand-knitted sweaters, gloves, hats, etc. are generally not distributed to the market. The manual cost is very high, and it cannot be produced in batches.

Modern technology uses synthetic chemical fibers and finishing processes to improve the scratching, non-ironing and wear resistance of knitted fabrics. The application of finishing techniques such as brushing, sanding, shearing, ginning and pleats has enriched the variety of knitwear. This kind of clothing has a variety of colors and toughness.

According to different technological characteristics, knitting production is divided into two categories: weft knitting and warp knitting.

In the weft-knitting production, the package yarn can be directly produced on the machine after the raw material is winded, and each yarn is sequentially placed on the knitting needles of the weft-knitting machine along the weft direction to form a weft-knitted fabric.

Knitting is divided into wool knitting and cotton knitting. Like the woven fabric we are familiar with, cotton knitting produces garments through a similar process. The wool knitting is relatively unpopular.

Wool knitting, such as the sweaters that we often wear, spring and summer knitwear, is made by weaving each part of the garment piece by a flat knitting machine, and then connecting them one by one with a sleeve machine, just like There is a reason to connect cloth pieces with a sewing machine, but the equipment and methods are different.
