Jersey Lining fabric

We know that fabrics are produced from a set of warp or weft yarn. Weaving and knitting is different for the interlacing techniques of yarn. In weaving it needs warp and weft yarn for produce woven fabric but in knitting, fabrics are produced from a series of yarn in warp or weft directions. Knitting techniques can be defined as follow.

The processes in which fabrics are produced by set of connect loops from a series of yarns in warp or weft direction is defined as knitting. Different knitting machines are use to perform this techniques. Mainly two types of knitted fabrics are produced. They are as follow:

Warp knitted fabrics: In a warp knitted structure, each loop in the horizontal direction is made from different thread and the number of thread used to produce such a fabric is at least equal to the numbers of loops in horizontal row.

Weft knitted fabrics: A horizontal row of loops can be made using one thread runs in horizontal direction. The fabric structure is different from one from another. Weft knitted fabrics are widely use.

In our daily life, we use different knitted fabrics. Depending on the fabrics design knitted fabrics can be as follow:

1. Plain Single Jersey

In above I have written about Lycra. Lycra use for special purpose. Use of Lycra depends on buyer requirement. It increases the elastic properties of fabrics.

Different knitted fabrics have different properties. Use of knitted fabrics depends on the atmospheric condition of the country. It also depends on the choice of one.
