① Knitting is the process of using knitting needles to form loops of various raw materials and varieties of yarns, and then connecting them into knitted fabrics through strings. Woven weaving is to use a shuttle to drive the weft yarn to pass through the warp openings that are opened and closed up and down, and one yarn and one yarn constitute a cross structure. Woven is a term to distinguish it from knitting, and woven is a cross structure.


②The knitted material is soft, has good wrinkle resistance and breathability, and has greater extensibility and elasticity, making it comfortable to wear. Woven fabrics have little relationship between warp and weft extension and shrinkage of woven fabrics, and do not change, so the fabrics are generally tighter and stiffer.


③  Knitted fabric: The coil is the smallest basic unit of the knitted fabric, and the coil is composed of the loop stem and the extension line in a space curve. Woven fabric: Each intersection point between warp and weft is called a weave point and is the smallest basic unit of a woven fabric.
