Stretchy & Fashionable

Tricot fabric is a type of warp-knitted textile known for its distinct diagonal rib pattern on one side and a smooth surface on the other. The diagonal ribs provide the fabric with excellent stretch and recovery properties, making it suitable for form-fitting garments.

A Closer Look Into Tricot Fabric

Tricot fabric is produced using a warp-knitting technique. In this process, each warp yarn is looped through the previous row of stitches using a latch hook, creating a stable and tightly knit fabric structure.

Tricot fabric can be composed of various fibers, both natural and synthetic. Commonly used fibers include polyester, nylon, spandex, and their blends. The choice of fiber affects the fabric's stretch, strength, and texture.

Properties of the Fabric

Smooth Texture: Tricot fabric's smooth surface provides a sleek and polished appearance.
Stretch and Recovery: The diagonal rib structure contributes to the fabric's excellent stretch and ability to regain its shape after stretching.
Durability: Tricot fabric is known for its durability and resistance to abrasion, making it suitable for various applications.
Breathability: Depending on the fiber composition, tricot fabric can offer breathability and comfort.

Apparel Applications

Tricot fabric's unique properties make it suitable for various types of apparel, including:

Knitting Process of the Tricot Fabric

Warp Yarn Setup: The warp yarns are set up on a warp-knitting machine, with each yarn individually controlled.
Knitting: The machine creates the fabric by looping each warp yarn through the previous row of stitches using a latch hook.
Diagonal Rib Formation: The looping pattern creates the characteristic diagonal rib structure on one side of the fabric.
Finishing: The fabric may undergo additional processes like dyeing, finishing, and cutting to create the final product.

Tricot fabric offers a harmonious blend of strength, stretch, and elegance.
