Abstract:
Knitting is one of the fabric
manufacturing techniques in which yarn
is converted into loops and loops are
intermeshed to form fabric. The knitted
fabrics are quite different from woven
fabrics in which yarn lie in straight line
resulting in rigid structure and less
elongation. Cotton knitted fabric is used
as raw material for the manufacture of
undergarments and knitwears. Generally,
hosiery yarn of count 20s-40s is being
used for the manufacture of knitted
fabric.
