Knit, tuck and miss stitches are normally used'
3& +hat do #ou meant b# (!ush *abrics,
"he plush fabric is nothin$ but loop pile fabric and it(s obtained by simultaneously knittin$ two ends of
yarn with a feed' )ne yarn forms normal stitches which appear on the technical face side and form
$round structure' Second one form a stitch with e*tended sinker loops' "he sinker loops form the pile
which appears on the re+erse side of the fabric'

6& )ention the characteristics o* sin!e "erse# *abric&
"he loops ha+e a 0-shaped loop appearance on technical face side and show semi-circular loops on
the technical back side'
&ecause of the side limbs of the loop on the face side, it feels smoother on face side than on the
back side'
1t is thus not re+ersible, from the feel and appearance point of +iew'
"he interlockin$ semi-circles at the technical back can be used to produce interestin$ effects if
alternate courses are knitted in different coloured yarns'
Knitted loops in plain-knit fabrics tend to distort easily under tension which help to $i+e a 2form
fittin$( and 2comfort( due to property of elastic reco+ery'
1t has potential reco+ery of about /3 per cent in width after stretchin$'
1ts width shortens if the len$th is e*tended by tensions while the len$th shortens if width is
stretched'
4ormally width way e*tensibility is appro*imately twice the len$th-way e*tensibility'
1t is knitted on a sin$le cylinder machine with a sin$le set of latch needles'
"he structures can be unro+ed from the course knitted last by pullin$ the 2needle loops( throu$h
from technical back or from the course knitted first by pullin$ the 2sinker loops( throu$h from the
technical face side'
1f the unrela*ed plain knit fabric is kept flat on the surface, it curls upwards at the top and bottom
and backwards at the sides'
1ts production rate is +ery hi$h because of stitch simplicity and its cost is low because of machine
simplicity (Capital cost also low) and rate of production is hi$h
"he stitch len$th can be +aried with cam settin$ $i+in$ more courses per unit len$th with short
stitch len$th and +ice-+ersa'
"he properties such as ri$idity, air permeability, wei$ht per unit area, burstin$ stren$th chan$es with
the stitch len$th'
"he fabric may appear thick or flimsy is the stitch len$th is reduced or increased
%0& +hat is meant b# seer sucker e**ects,
1t(s achie+ed by knittin$ one yarn with a lar$er stitch than the others' 1t is produce the crinkle effects'

Li$hter fabric'
5conomical'
5asily ra+els at both the ends'
6i$hly e*tensible in len$th and width'
"he fabric curls towards the face at the top and bottom and towards the back at the sides'
Ladderin$ is +ery common in these fabrics'
Knitted loops in plain knit fabrics tend to distort easily under tension which helps to $i+e a form
fittin$ and comfort due to property of elastic'
