The term cloth generally refers to woven fabric that is formed with a warp and the weft, threads running side to side and up to down. Knitted fabric is formed by a series of interlocking loops and it is more flexible or stretches more than woven fabric.

How do you tell if you purled or knitted?

To determine if you purled or knitted a stitch, look at the side of the fabric you're working on. If the stitch appears smooth and V-shaped, you have knitted it; this is the "knit" side. Conversely, if the stitch has a bump or a purl appearance, then you have purled it, which is commonly referred to as the "purl" side. Additionally, the texture of the fabric will also differ: knit stitches create a flatter, more elastic fabric, while purl stitches create a bumpy texture.

Why you take woven fabric by length and knitted fabric by weight?

Woven fabric tends to have a fairly stable size, so you can measure it by length. Knitted fabrics tend to be very stretchy, so when you cut them they shrink in on themselves or they can be stretched during the cutting to give you less fabric than you thought you were getting. However, in most fabric stores, you will purchase both woven and knitted fabrics by the yard (length).
