WARP KNIT

Warp knit structures

The six fundamental stitches in warp knitting are Tricot Knit, Milanese Knit, Simplex Knit, Raschel Knit, and Ketten Raschel Knit, and Crochet Knit.

1. TRICOT KNIT fabric is soft, wrinkle resistant and has good drapability. Tricot knits are used for a wide variety of fabric weights and designs. Some tricot fabrics are lingerie, loungewear, sleepwear, blouses, shirts, dresses, slacks etc.

2. MILANESE KNIT produces a fabric very similar to tricot. It can be identified by the fine rib on the face and a diagonal pattern on the back. Milanese fabric is superior to tricot in smoothness, elasticity, regularity of structure, split and tear resistance.

3. SIMPLEX KNIT fabric is made of fine yarn and is relatively dense and thick. It is a small part of warp knit production. Simplex fabric is used to make gloves, handbags, and sportswear and slip covers.

4. RASCHEL KNIT is done with heavy yarns and has an intricate lace-like pattern. It makes varieties of products like veiling, laces, power nets and carpets etc.

5. KETTEN RASCHEL KNIT is also known as the chain raschel. The fabric is finer, has a better hand, superior elasticity and cover.

6. CROCHET KNIT is hand knit crochet. It is made when thread used chains upon itself and cross links are formed with previously formed chain to generate fabric. This construction is used in a wide variety of fabrics ranging from nets and laces to bedspreads and carpets.
