The reciprocating movements of the yarn, therefore, cause the stitch of each knitted course to incline in the same direction, alternately to the left and to the right. Since the underlap is connected to the root of the stitch, it causes a lateral displacement in the root of the stitch due to the warp tension. The underlap crosses and covers more wales on its way, with the result that the fabric becomes heavier, thicker and denser. When knitting with a longer underlap, more yarn has to be supplied to the knitting needles. The length of the underlap also influences the fabric weight. The longer the underlap for a given warp the greater the increase in lateral fabric stability, conversely a shorter under lap reduces the width-wise stability and strength and increases the lengthways stability of the fabric. The longer the underlap, the more it lies at right angles to the fabric length axis. The length of the under lap is defined in terms of needle spaces.
The second part of stitch formation is the length of yarn linking together the stitches and this is termed the underlap, which is formed by the lateral movement of the yarns across the needles. This movement wraps the yarn around the needle ready for the knock-over displacement. The diagram shows the path taken by the eyelet of one yarn guide traveling through the needle line, making a lateral overlap (shog) and making a return swing. This wrapping of the yarn is called an overlap. The first is the stitch itself, which is formed by wrapping the yarn around the needle and drawing it through the previously knitted loop. In this manner, a knitting needle often draws the new yarn loop through the knitted loop formed by another end of the yarn in the previous knitting cycle.Ī warp knitted structure is made up of two parts. In order to connect the stitches to form a fabric, the yarns are deflected laterally between the needles. In warp knitting, every knitting needle is supplied with at least one separate yarn.
Warp knitting is defined as a stitch forming process in which the yarns are supplied to the knitting zone parallel to the selvedge of the fabric, i.e. Warp knitting can also be used to make pile fabrics often used for upholstery. Raschel machines are useful because they can process all yarn types in all forms (filament, staple, combed, carded, etc.). Two common types of warp knitting machines are the Tricot and Raschel machines. The yarns are fed from warp beams to a row of needles extending across the width of the machine. The fabric is produced in sheet or flat form using one or more sets of warp yarns. The needles produce parallel rows of loops simultaneously that are interlocked in a zigzag pattern. Warp knitting differs from weft knitting in that each needle loops its own thread. Cognate with Middle Dutch warp, Middle Low German warp, German Warf, Danish varp, Swedish varp.Warp knitting represents the fastest method of producing fabric from yarns. Cognate with Scots warp (“to throw, warp"), North Frisian werpen (“to throw"), Dutch werpen (“to throw, cast"), German werfen (“to throw, cast"), Icelandic verpa (“to throw").įrom Middle English warp, werp, from Old English wearp, warp (“a warp, threads stretched lengthwise in a loom, twig, osier"), from Proto-Germanic *warpaz (“a warp"), from Proto-Indo-European *werb- (“to turn, bend"). From Middle English werpen, weorpen, worpen, from Old English weorpan (“to throw, cast, cast down, cast away, throw off, throw out, expel, throw upon, throw open, drive away, sprinkle, hit, hand over, lay hands on (a person), cast lots, charge with, accuse of"), from Proto-Germanic *werpanÄ… (“to throw, turn"), from Proto-Indo-European *werb- (“to bend, turn").
