   Scouring is a chemical washing process carried out on cotton fabric to remove natural wax and non-fibrous impurities (e.g. The remains of seed fragments) from the fibers and any added soiling or dirt. Scouring is usually carried in iron vessels called kiers. The fabric is boiled in an alkali, which forms a soap with free fatty acids ...

3. Flat knitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_knitting

   Flat knitting is a method for producing knitted fabrics in which the work is turned periodically; that is, the fabric is worked with alternating sides facing the knitter. Another method of achieving the same result is to knit alternately from right to left and left to right without turning; this back-and-forth technique requires either innate ...

   A modern knitting machine in the process of weft knitting. Weft-knit fabrics may also be knit with multiple yarns, usually to produce interesting color patterns. The two most common approaches are intarsia and stranded colorwork. In intarsia, the yarns are used in well-segregated regions, e.g., a red apple on a field of green; in that case, the ...

5. Process flow diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_flow_diagram

   A process flow diagram (PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations.

   This template's initial visibility currently defaults to collapsed, meaning that it is hidden apart from its title bar. To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{Cotton processing flowchart | state = expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.

7. Finishing (textiles) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finishing_(textiles)

   Textile finishing machinery, Red Bridge Mills, Ainsworth, 1983 In textile manufacturing, finishing refers to the processes that convert the woven or knitted cloth into a usable material and more specifically to any process performed after dyeing the yarn or fabric to improve the look, performance, or "hand" (feel) of the finish textile or clothing.

8. Textile manufacturing - Wikipedia

   Warp knits do not stretch as much as a weft knits, and they are run-resistant. A weft knit is not run-resistant, but it has more stretch. This is especially true if spools of elastane are processed from separate spool containers and interwoven through the cylinder with cotton yarn, giving the finished product more flexibility and preventing it ...

9. Knitted fabric - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knitted_fabric

   Knitted fabric is a textile that results from knitting, the process of inter-looping of yarns or inter-meshing of loops. Its properties are distinct from woven fabric in that it is more flexible and can be more readily constructed into smaller pieces, making it ideal for socks and hats.
