Explain the difference between knitted fabrics and woven fabrics

Many people may not know the difference between knitted fabrics and woven fabrics, but understanding these may help us in our life. Knitted fabrics and woven fabrics are very different in terms of production process, and different processes will of course bring different effects. But the general public may not pay much attention to the fabric is knitted or woven, in fact, knitted fabrics and woven fabrics are very different. If we are careful to understand them, we can find out their differences.　　

Production process difference.

To find out the difference between them, we should understand their basic process. And according to the different directions of coil knitting can be classified. The horizontal one is called weft knitted fabric, and the vertical one is called warp knitted fabric. The woven fabric is a fabric made by interweaving two or more groups of vertical yarns vertically through a shuttle machine. Different direction yarns can be divided into different types, horizontal called weft, longitudinal called warp yarn. The basic unit of a knitted fabric is the loop, while the basic unit of a woven fabric is the tissue point where the warp and weft yarns intersect.　　Weave difference: Then, it is time to talk about the different characteristics of knitted and woven weaving methods.　　

Weaving distinctions.

Then, it is time to talk about the different characteristics of the two weaving methods of knitting and woven fabrics. Knitted fabrics are formed by hole-like coils, better breathability, more evenly extended in all directions, better elasticity, and softer if you feel it. The height and width of the loops can be converted from one to another, so its extensibility is better. In addition, knitted fabrics are more comfortable to wear on the body, will not feel constrained tight, can fully reflect the body's curve beauty. Woven fabric is lighter, the relationship between weft extension and contraction is not big, and the conversion does not happen, the extension is poor. This fabric is generally denser, harder, not as soft as knitted. Woven fabrics are more sturdy and wear-resistant, and are produced in larger quantities in clothing and other areas.　　

Differences in fabrics.

Knitted and woven fabrics have differences, in terms of production process, the characteristics of the fabric has a great difference, each has different uses. I believe the above sharing can help us to understand the knitted fabrics and woven fabrics.
