Single jersey
The most basic structure, knitted on one set of needles. It is thin and light, so it is used for innerwear and T-shirts, and spandex is added for stretch.
Apparel & functional knits
We develop circular knits for sportswear, workwear and innerwear: stretch single jersey and stretch double knits, interlock, ponte, and dense high-gauge fabrics. Yarn count and stitch density are chosen for the conditions the garment will be worn in, and stretch recovery and surface hand are checked on samples first.
We have handled knits for seasonal apparel and for uniforms alike. One of those jobs was a patented moisture-wicking, quick-dry fabric supplied to more than 50 institutions under Korea’s Ministry of Justice, where the fabric had to stand up to frequent laundering and stay consistent across a large volume.
Structure
The order in which the needles knit sets the structure.
Interlock
A double-knit structure made on two facing sets of needles, with alternate needles knitting on each feed. Both sides look the same and the surface is smooth, so it is used for garments worn next to the skin.
PontePunto di Roma
Two yarns that knit interlock, followed by two yarns that each knit on one side only. It is thick and holds its shape, so it is used for outerwear and workwear.
The figures are knitting notation. Dots are needles and the line is the path of the yarn; each row is one yarn. A stitch is formed where the yarn loops around a needle.
