What is the knitwear made of?

Often, jerseys are made from natural yarns such as cotton and wool. Garments made from such jersey are of very high quality and durable. They are hygroscopic, air and vapor permeable, do not electrify.

Synthetic fibers are also used for the production of knitted fabrics, however, such knitwear does not allow air to pass through and practically does not absorb moisture. Items made of synthetic knitwear strongly accumulate an electrostatic charge (electrify), which necessitates the use of an antistatic agent.

A kind of knitwear for the intended purpose. What kind of jersey is there?

• linen;
• upper;
• hosiery;
• glove;
• shawl - scarf.

Knitted underwear and outerwear are sewn from knitted fabric, other types are created on a knitting machine. High-quality underwear knitwear absorbs moisture well, breathes through, is elastic, pleasant to the body, the underwear fits the body.

The raw material for this material is cotton and lavsan cloth. The thread from which the linen is made is flexible, the loop from this thread retains its shape.

There is also the so-called plated cloth, the front side of which is knitted from silk, the back side from cotton.

Outer garments and hosiery for winter are made with a loose structure thread, while other hosiery uses a denser twisted thread.

Knitwear for children

It should be noted that jerseys are irreplaceable items in a children's wardrobe. It is difficult for children to dress and undress, they also need freedom of movement and comfort so that nothing gets in the way.

Knitted clothes are very suitable. This makes it easier for mothers to undress or dress the baby. It's no secret that children don't like to dress, so mom needs to make this process quick and easy.

It is much easier to pull on comfortable knitted clothes on a child, which are elastic and tend to stretch, and then take on their original shape. In addition, it keeps warm well, allows air to pass through, does not restrict movement, the child is comfortable in such a thing.

How to choose jersey?

When buying a knitted item, it is very important to pay attention to its quality. For this:

• You need to take a good look at the product. It should be elastic and keep its shape.
• For a better inspection, the product must be placed on a well-lit flat surface and inspect the edges and seams. The edges should not be stretched, and the seams should be straight, not skewed and neatly processed, the accuracy of processing also applies to loops and other parts.
• If the product was on a hanger, inspect where the hanger and clothing touched. They should not be stretched and frayed due to a long stay on the hanger.
• The best choice of jersey is jersey with the addition of artificial threads. They make the item sturdier and less stretchable when worn. The perfect combination the composition is considered to be 20-30% artificial fiber (viscose, acrylic and others), 80-70% natural (cotton, wool). Wool keeps you warm in cold weather, cotton is ideal for hot seasons.
• The more synthetics in a piece of clothing, the cheaper it is. However, its qualities are also deteriorating. It does not allow air and moisture to pass through well, it becomes electrified, and pellets appear in the process of wearing. For children of this quality, clothes are generally not acceptable.
• Synthetic fibers in combination with natural fibers make the item stronger, more pleasant to the body, and increase the service life of the product.
• In clothes for children, it is ideal if the jersey is completely made of cotton thread (composition 100% cotton), the seams and tags should not be rough, the product should not fade during washing, children's clothes should be soft and elastic.

The material is made by combining a cotton, silk base with microfiber or polyester threads. Clothes - skirts, jackets are made in a woven way - a microfiber cloth is split into small fibers and applied to a cotton or silk base. This method ensures the reliability of the material. The non-woven method, in which the polyester threads are glued to the base, is distinguished by its cheapness, but also by less high-quality processing. Artificial suede is soft, durable and practically does not deform.

The material consists of two parts: a base and a layer of polymers. Possesses good strength, elasticity, hypoallergenicity and firmly tolerates frost, as well as exposure to ultraviolet radiation.

Silk Is a fabric of natural origin, obtained from cocoons that silkworms weave. The technology of its manufacture is rather complicated, which naturally affects the cost of the final material.

It is only important to understand the types of knitwear and choose the right one for your purposes.

Knitwear is a versatile material obtained on knitting machines using a special method of interweaving fibers of different composition. Modern knitwear manufacturers offer a wide variety species differing in the type of weaving and composition. Knitwear has many faces - among its varieties are jersey, "elastic", footer imitating suede, terry, oil, stitch, corn, pikachu, disco, supplex, knitted, viscose jersey, and in the form of angora. That is why it is so popular when sewing various products.

The history of the emergence of knitted weaving

Knitwear is translated from French as "knit". Its history began many centuries ago. 300 years BC - this is the age of the first finds of the remains of knitted fabrics. Modern industrial production began in Europe in the 19th century with the creation of the first knitting machines.

Varieties of knitwear and its features

In the manufacture of knitwear, various components are added to the composition. Cotton, linen, woolen and silk threads are taken as a basis. They use additives of acetate, viscose and its modifications, and to enhance some properties, synthetics come to the rescue - lycra, elastane and polyester fibers. This is due to the fact that knitwear containing pure cotton rapidly loses its shape, attractiveness, wrinkles and quickly wears out, while additional components successfully fight against its shortcomings.

The key feature of knitwear is a recognizable loop structure, which differs in the peculiarities of the weave:

• Warp knitted

Formed by a bundle of fibers called the backbone. The base is represented by several loops, knitted separately, which allows the knitted fabric to not unravel.

• Cross knitted

Loops of one row are knitted sequentially and are obtained straight. The disadvantage of such a fabric is the possibility of blooming in any direction, however, it withstands well stretching in the transverse direction.

• Single (one-sided), double and jacquard

These weaves affect the appearance of the knitted surface. At the same time, one-sided jersey differs in face and wrong side, double-sided - looks the same on both sides, and jacquard - has a zigzag volumetric texture.

Advantages and disadvantages of knitted fabrics

The properties of the material depend on its composition, however, there is a list of mandatory positive qualities for which we love knitwear so much:

• comfortable sensations from contact with the skin;
• active permeability of the fabric to air enhances the wearing comfort;
• optimal ability to absorb excess moisture;
• sufficient strength makes the product durable and resistant to wear;
• color variety and persistence of dyes;
• affordable price.

There are no drawbacks that significantly affect the fabric. The only caveat is the fabric's ability to fit the figure well. This must be taken into account when buying knitwear if the figure cannot boast of ideal forms.

Features care for knitwear

Knitted clothes are always accompanied by a label indicating the composition and care recommendations. Observing them, you can maintain an attractive appearance for a long time. Before starting "water" procedures, you should check the product for pellets and be sure to remove them manually or using a special machine.

• Washing: We recommend washing the jersey by hand, with a preliminary soak for 20-30 minutes. Both washing and soaking should be carried out at a water temperature of 30 º С. Choose liquid detergents.
• Spin: do not twist the product using excessive physical force. It is enough to wrap it in a dry towel and wring it out slightly.
• Drying: produced horizontally, away from direct sunlight.
• Ironing: switch the iron to steaming mode and, without touching the surface, smooth it with steam. If the fabric has pile, print or embroidery, we recommend doing it from the inside out. Smooth surfaces can be steamed from the front. Sometimes the product will stretch during washing, in which case you can iron it using a damp cloth as an iron. If the sweater or turtleneck has lost its shape, then you can “dry” them on yourself, wearing them in a slightly damp, but not wet state.

Store jersey clothes folded on the shelves and do not leave them hanging on the hangers for a long time, as the product may lose its original shape at the points of contact.
