Why is the permeability and elasticity of knitted fabric better than that of woven fabric?

One. Using the elasticity of knitted fabric

Knitted fabrics have good elasticity, and seams, wrinkles and splicing designed for modeling can be minimized in pattern design. Secondly, knitted fabrics are generally not suitable for modeling by pushing back and ironing, but by using the elasticity of the fabric itself or properly using wrinkle technology to fit the human body curve. Then the elasticity of fabric becomes an important basis for model design and production.

The pattern of woven clothing is generally larger than the area needed to wrap the human body, that is, it has a certain degree of looseness relative to the human body; For knitted garments, according to the fabric structure, if the fabric with particularly high elasticity is designed (related to yarn and weave structure), it will not leave any looseness, and its pattern size can be the same as that of people, and it can be reduced by considering the elastic coefficient.

Secondly, by using the curling characteristics of knitted fabrics

The curling of knitted fabric is caused by the disappearance of internal stress in the fabric edge loop. Curlability is a disadvantage of knitted fabrics. It will cause uneven seams of garment pieces or dimensional changes of garment edges, and ultimately affect the overall modeling effect and garment size. However, not all knitted fabrics have hemming, only fabrics with individual structures have hemming, such as weft knitted flat knitted fabrics. For this kind of fabric, the problem of pattern design can be solved by increasing the hemming size, setting ribs or hemming, and embedding adhesive lining in the edge of clothing. In the process of fabric finishing, the curl of some knitted fabrics is eliminated, which avoids the trouble of pattern design.

It should be pointed out that many designers can turn disadvantages into advantages on the basis of understanding the characteristics of fabrics, and use the curl characteristics of fabrics to design the neckline and cuffs of models, so that the clothing can obtain a special appearance style, which is refreshing, especially in the weaving of molded clothing, and can also use its curl characteristics to form unique patterns or dividing lines.

Third, pay attention to the detachability of knitted fabrics.

Knitted fabrics are different from woven fabrics in style and characteristics, and their clothing styles should not only emphasize the advantages of fabrics, but also overcome their shortcomings. Because some knitted fabrics are loose, it is necessary to pay attention to some knitted fabrics not to use too many exaggerated designs, try not to design darts and cutting lines, and not to have too many sewing seams to prevent the looseness of knitting loops from affecting the wearing performance of clothing. Simple and soft lines should be used to coordinate the softness and fit style of sweaters. Organic cotton is a kind of natural, high-quality and pollution-free environmental protection cotton. Do not use any pesticides and forward the products produced and processed by raw cotton and be certified by an independent certification body. Organic cotton is mainly managed by organic fertilizer, biological and natural farming to prevent pests and diseases in agricultural production, and chemicals are not allowed; From seeds to agricultural products, cotton produced in a natural and pollution-free way is measured by the safety and quality standards of agricultural products published by various countries or WTO/FAO, and the contents of toxic and harmful substances such as pesticides, heavy metals, nitrates and pests (including microbial parasite eggs) in cotton are controlled within the limits stipulated by the standards; And get certified commodity cotton. The production of organic cotton not only needs the necessary conditions such as light, heat, water and soil for cotton planting, but also has specific requirements for the cleanliness of cultivated soil environment, irrigation water quality and air environment. Xinjiang is an organic cotton planting base in China, with superior light and heat conditions, long sunshine time, light pests and diseases, many kinds and quantities of natural enemies, rich sources of organic fertilizer, irrigation water from Tianshan meltwater, and unpolluted soil.
