Woven vs knitted fabric.
Woven and knitted fabrics are constructed differently, which affects their stretch, drape, stability and common applications.
Woven fabrics are formed by interlacing warp and weft yarns. Knitted fabrics are formed through interlooping yarns and often offer more stretch, depending on construction and fibre content. Buyers should choose based on the garment or product design, required dimensional stability, hand feel, durability, stretch and finishing. GSM alone does not determine performance.
Key takeaway: Share the intended application and required performance, not just a fabric name, when requesting a quote.
