This industry is one of the main sources of applying continuous filament yarns, especially nylon, polyester, acetate and viscose rayon yarns. However, large quantities of cotton and small portions of wool and cut nylon yarn are used as well.
In warp knitting, loops of yarn form along the length of the fabric. As the yarn that is placed in the warp and weft fabrics along the fabric is called warp, therefore this method of knitting is called warp knitting. Each yarn forms loops along the fabric. Knitted warps created in the width of fabrics are also joined together. The number of clues required for the texture of a warp knitted fabric depends on the width of the fabric and the transverse density of the fabric warps. This method requires thousands of threads. For such reason, in warp knitting, the yarns needed for weaving the fabric are twisted on spools and fed to the machine.
