Quality assessment of circular weft knitted fabrics for female lingerie

Knitwear that are worn in direct contact with the skin, except of cotton, are often made of man-made artificial fibres from cellulose. In this paper four different weft double jersey knitted fabrics made of standard single cotton ring spun yarn ; viscose single ring and rotor spun yarns, and SiroSpun® ring two-play yarn of the same linear density were used. The quality of raw and finished knitted fabrics were evaluated and their applicability assessed for the intended purpose. Along with the basic characterization of yarns, the testing of mass per unit area, thickness and number of wales and courses per unit length of knitted fabrics were carried out. Knitwear usage quality were analysed by determination of breaking strength and elongation, dimensional change and spirality after laundering, their propensity to surface pilling and abrasion resistance, all according to the standardized test methods.
