Knits

Knits are fabrics made by one or more threads disposed in a complex interlocking pattern - threads are drawn through previously formed loops and themselves form new loops.

Knits stretch in all directions. This constrasts with woven cloth, which only stretches across the bias.

Examples of knits include:

• spandex
• knitting
• sheer
