The difference in woven and knit garments lies in the construction of the fabrics. The knit garment is tougher and better able to withstand wear, but the woven garment has the ability to be more versatile in it's construction. The woven garment is the most common in clothing construction. Because of the ability to cut the material and shape it by means of sewing, it is far more popular in the garment industry. Material made by weaving is thinner as a rule and is not prone to raveling in handling. This allows the garment maker to cut shapes that are not ordinarily available to the knitted garment. Garments made by this method can be embellished by any number of add on items such as buttons, woven in patterns, or different types of lace and contrasting materials sewn to the fabric. The knitted garment is softer and more supple because its thread is treated differently. Knitted is produced by using needles to pull threads up through the preceding threads to produce fabric. Items such as sweaters and stockings are made by the knitting method and will readily "give" in response to pressure of the body. The disadvantage to the knit garment is that it is easily damaged by pulling of one thread in the garment which will distort or even destroy the garment. Examples of this problem is seen by the "run" in stockings and "pulls" in a sweater. For a more complete look at the material construction of the two methods, see the links.
Woven fabric is made of strands of warp going in one direction and strands of weft going 90 degrees to the warp and weaving in and out of the warp yarns. The resulting fabric has little stretch to it.
Knitted fabric is made of a single strand of yarn with row upon row of loops pulled through loops. The resulting fabric is stretchy. Knitting uses more yarn than weaving of similar dimensions.
Woven fabrics are created when two sets of yarns Warp and Weft interlace at right angles. Like the placemats you made in grade school.
Non woven fabrics' fibres are interlocked to create a fabric. So instead of taking fibers, spinning yarns and weaving or knitting the yarns, they go right from fiber to fabric. Wool felt is a good example the scales on the wool tangle, heat and pressure allow the fibers to become a fabric. Synthetic fibers can also create non woven fabrics, as they melt and a web of fibers can be heated so they are locked together by melting to create a fabric. Federal Express envelops are actually a fabric created from olefin fibers.
Knit fabrics are created by looped yarns. They have more stretch than woven fabrics.
Knit is when the fabric is made of yarn that is knit. Knitting is when you take 2 needles and, well you can't really describe it online. Woven fabrics are made of yarn or wool. The yarn or wool is put on a loom where it is woven with the in and out motion of weaving. I have done both.
Knit fabric is stretchy, woven fabric does not stretch. Knitted fabrics are created using various stitches with thread on a knitting machine. Woven fabric is just lines of interwoven threads, created on a loom.
printed means that the pattern has been printed on to the cloth, pretty much like a computer printer puts words and pictures on a paper. Woven this time probably means that the pattern is in the cloth. By inserting and removing threads of different colors in a certain sequence as the cloth is woven it's possible to create a pattern or even a picture.
This question was answered elsewhere on Wiki. Here is the link: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_difference_between_knit_and_woven_garments
Knitted fabric is formed by a continuous succession of stitches. Woven fabric is formed by 'weaving' separate threads in an under-over configuration.
woven, I'm pretty sure.
knit?
A non-woven material would be a knit.
Woven but look it up on wiki. Denim is a diagonal twill weave.
Many men prefer knit boxers. Men prefer Different boxers in different seasons. Woven in summer and knit in winter. You should try the two yourself and see what you like
I would say that polar fleece is a woven fabric, made with synthetic fibers.
If you're referring to temperature and breathability, woven is not necessarily cooler than knit. The breathability depends more on the type of fiber (natural fabrics versus synthetic fabrics), and less on how it is constructed (woven fabrics versus knit fabrics).Fabrics that are "cool" and breathable are:linencotton (especially seersucker)rayonlightweight woolsilkThese are all natural fabrics, and can be either woven or knit. For example, a cotton shirt could be woven (such as a button-down shirt), or knit (such as a t-shirt).And if by "cool" you mean trendy or attractive....well, that's up to you. Both woven and knit come in cool prints and colors. :)
I want to get the knit garments consumption formula woven garments consumption formula
Tweed is a material/fabric. It is a wool cloth, rather coarse, and can come in many weaves and colors.
The length will be one yard. The width will be the other dimension from woven/knit edge to woven/knit edge.
A plain t-shirt is usually made from a knit cotton or poly/cotton fabric.
Fabric that is gray melange has printed color at intervals. Knit means the fabric in woven or knitted.
