knit iconKnit - Step 4:

<< previous step: spin | next step: finish >>

 

During the knit process, spun yarn is turned into cloth by pulling loops, called stitches, through one another.  CotC cotton is circularly knit, creating a seamless tube for the body.

 

Circular knitting is accomplished by cylinder knit machines.  Because this knit method creates a tube for the body without side seams, it requires a separate tube of cloth be knit for every garment size.
