act alternatively. In Rib the cylinder and dial needles are offset with each other, thus can work
simultaneously. In general production is Rib structure makes double the loops when compared to
Interlock.
1.2.1 Needles:
The main loop forming element in the knitting process is needles. After invention of needles only
the knitting technique had developed and various types of fabric were produced.
There are two popular types of needles used in knitting machines Latch needle &bearded
needle. Commonly there are 3types of needles namely latch, bearded and compound needles

The latch needle is most commonly used in weft knitting machines whereas bearded needle
predominantly used in warp knitting. The major difference in operation between the two needles,
is that bearded needle cannot form loop on its own it requires the assistance of presser to close the
beard to permit the interlacing of loops. The latch needle is capable of forming and intermeshing
loops without assistance. In both warp and weft knitting, the basic construction of the fabric is
produced by looping.

The bearded or spring needle was the first type of needle to be produced. It is the cheapest and
simplest type to manufacture as it is made from a single piece of metal.In machine gauges as fine
as 60 needles per inch, with the needles being pliered to ensure accurate needle spacing. The

formed loop in order to draw it through the previously formed.
1.2.2 Sinkers
The sinker is the second primary knitting element. It is a thin metal plate with an individual or a
collective action operating approximately at right angles from the hook side of the needle bed,
between adjacent needles. Write the function and the type of sinkers?

The basic element in a knitted fabric is a stitch or loop. A loop got two faces namely face loop
and back loop. A series or column of loops intermeshing vertically or along the fabric length is
called wales. A series or a row of loops intermeshing horizontally or along the fabric width is
called a course .These two parameters namely courses and Wales are also commonly used to
specify knitted fabric quality.

It is necessary to know the difference betweentwo separate systems of knitting i.e. Weft knitting
and Warp knitting.
In weft knitting, the series of loops are formed from threads inserted in horizontal direction. The
general direction of path of yarn is across the length of fabric. This is like a pick of weft in
weaving process.
Warp knitting on the other hand consists of loops formed in a vertical direction with separate
threads for each needle. The general direction of path of yarn is along the length of the fabric,
similar to that of warp in weaving. The basic loop needed for warp knitting has a different
configuration from the primary weft knitted loop.

Warp knitting principle were vertical latch needles are working in conjunction with warp guide
bars between the needles spaces. The guide bars carrying the warp threads can swing collectively
from the back of the needle to the hook side, and then shog one space to the right or left. The
guides then return to the back of the needle forming a lap of the yarn around the open latch of the
needle. The stitch is completed by the collective downward movement of the needles when the
loop of the previous course is cast off and the new loop is drawn through it. If the warp guides
associates with the same needle at every course, no fabric would be produced, instead, each
needle would produce a separate chain of loops. Therefore there must be a side way connection
of these chains in order to produce a fabric.
This is achieved by a shogging movement of the warp guides at the back of the needles before
swinging through to the hook side of the needle. It will be observed in figure that the guide
containing the black yarn has associated with 1st and 2nd needles from the left at alternate courses,
producing the simplest of all warp knitted structures.

3.1 Shrinkage.
Knitted fabric unlike woven fabrics will shrink much to washing. To avoid this fabrics should be
pre-shrunk before it is made into garments.
3.2 Elongation
Knitted fabrics have more elongation when compare with woven fabrics. They have higher width
wise elongation of the order of 50% and lengthwise elongation of about 30%

In knitted fabric, single jersey will curl on both sides when it is cut, thus positioning while made
in to garments special sewing machines are needed to stitch knitted fabric because of the above
properties (curling and elongation),
Its elastic recovery property is most suitable for vests and briefs.
Weft knitted structures are affected by various forms of dimensional distortion. Inclination and
distortion of loops within knitted structures are commonly known as skewness and spirality,
respectfully. They can basically be divided into two groups: material causes and process causes.
Material causes is yarn related and is caused by residual torque in the yarn shown by its twist-
liveliness.
Process causes is machine related and is connected to knitting with multiple feeders on the
circular knitting machine. Procedures for reduction or even elimination of the skewness/spirality
have continuously been developed and improved. Some of them include changes in raw material,
the others in mechanical processes and/or equipment while the other again concentrate on after-
treatments.

Loop length or Stitch length is the length of yarn consumed to produce one loop. It is measured
by marking hundred wales in a course ( yarn fed by any particular feeder) and unravelling the
yarn from that measured portion. The unravelled yarn is measured for its length in a straight line.
The obtained length is divided by the number of needles ie. 100. The result in millimetre is called
loop length.
Course length is the length of yarn knitted from any one feeder for one revolution of the cylinder.
It is measured by marking any one needle line (wale) and unravelling the yarn for one complete
revolution of machine (full circle of fabric).

The course length is longer to measure in a straight line. So, it is measured on a board with
multiple turns through friction less rollers and giving a tension of approximately 4 grams to
straighten the yarn.
There are instruments to measure the course length and loop length online when the machine is
running.
4.3 Count
The count of the yarn indicates the weight per unit length or length per unit weight. There are two
systems for expressing the count of the yarn,1) indirect system and 2) Direct system.
In English(Ne) system the count denotes the no of 840 yds in one lbs,
In Direct (Tex) system the count denotes weight in grams of 1000m
The easy way to convert the yarn count from English systems to direct system of Tex.exmple if
we have 40Ne,we can change to tex .what about other system must be included here like denier
Nm dtex and others?
Tex = 590.5/Ne = 590.5/40s = 19.7 tex
where, 590.5 is a conversion factor.
4.4 Feeders
The no of yarn feed in the knitting mc. This is decided by the machinemanufacturer.
For example 30 inch diameter m/c having 90 feeders(i.e.3 feeders/ inch)
