| Abstract [eng] |
In this study 100% cotton 29.5 tex yarn was used to develop hybrid knitted structures with a combination of knit, tuck and miss stitches. A single jersey circular weft machine (FUKUHARA, Japan, 1992) with diameter 30 inches and gauge 20E was used to develop the samples. The samples were scoured, bleached, dyed, and treated with softener. The physical properties of the samples, e.g. area density, thickness, and wale and course density were determined according to the standard test methods. It was concluded from the analysis of results that fabric area density and thickness were found to depend on the percentage of different stitches in the fabric structure. |
