Knitting engineering
Gauge, stitch length and construction jointly shape weight, width, stretch, surface and garment yield.
Machine Gauge Selection
Gauge must be compatible with yarn diameter, stitch density, surface appearance and target GSM.
12Stitch Length and Fabric Balance
Stitch length is a critical process variable for GSM, width, air permeability, stretch and dimensional stability.
14Interlock Fabric Engineering
Interlock offers a balanced surface and fuller hand; machine setting, usable width and dye load should be verified before quotation.
