Application range of knitted fabrics

Knitted fabric is a fabric made of loops connected with each other, which is a large variety of fabric. Knitted fabric has good elasticity, moisture absorption and breathability, comfortable and warm, is the most widely used fabric for children's clothing, the raw material is mainly cotton, linen, silk, wool and other natural fibers, but also nylon, acrylic, polyester and other chemical fibers knitted fabric with rich organizational changes, a wide range of varieties, unique appearance, used in the past for underwear, T-shirts, etc., and now, with the development of the knitting industry and the birth of new finishing process, the performance of knitted fabric taking With the development of the knitting industry and the birth of new finishing processes, the taking performance of knitted fabrics has been greatly improved and is applicable to almost all categories of children's clothing.

First, Use the stretch of knitted fabrics

Knitted fabric has good stretch, in the sample design can minimize the design for the shape of the seams, pleating, splicing, etc.. Secondly, knitted fabrics are generally not suitable to use the skills of pushing back and pulling iron, but use the elasticity of the fabric itself or appropriate use of pleating techniques to fit the body curve. Then the size of the fabric stretch becomes an important basis for the pattern design and production.

The sample of woven garments and wrap the area needed for the human body are generally larger, that is, there is a certain amount of slack relative to the human body; and knitted garments according to the use of fabric structure, if the elasticity of the fabric is particularly large (with the use of yarn and tissue structure) when designing the sample not only does not leave the amount of slack, its sample size can be the same as the human circumference size, can also consider the elasticity factor and reduce its size.

Second, the use of knitted fabrics rolled edge

Knitted fabric roll edge is due to the edge of the fabric edge coil stress disappearance and caused by the edge of the fabric wrap phenomenon. The rolled edge is the deficiency of knitted fabric. It can cause unevenness at the seam of the garment piece or the size change of the garment edge, which eventually affects the overall modeling effect of the garment and the specification size of the garment. But not all knitted fabrics have rolled edge sex, but such as weft flat knitted fabrics and other individual organization structure of the fabric only, for this kind of fabric, in the sample design can be put through the size of the edge, inlaid ribbing or rolled edge and in the garment edge parts inlaid adhesive lining strip solution. Some knitted fabrics in the process of finishing the fabric has been eliminated, to avoid the trouble of sample design.

It should be noted that many designers in understanding the performance of the fabric on the basis of the harm can be turned into a benefit, the use of fabric rolled edge, the design in the sample collar, cuffs, so that the clothing to get a special appearance style, refreshing, especially in the molding of clothing knitting can also use its rolled edge to form a unique pattern or split line.

Third, pay attention to the dispersion of knitted fabrics

Knitted fabrics are different from woven fabrics in style and characteristics, and the style of its clothing should not only emphasize the advantages of the fabric but also to overcome its shortcomings. As individual knitted fabrics have dispersion, sample design and production should pay attention to some knitted fabrics do not use too many exaggerated techniques, as far as possible, do not design provincial, cutting line, splicing seams should not be too much, in order to prevent the occurrence of knitted coils dispersion and affect the taking of clothing, should use simple and soft lines and knitted soft body style coordination.
