Abstract
Changes in area of a plain-knitted wool fabric as a result of changes in regain (r.h. movement) are shown to be dependent upon fabric stiffness and the previous treatments of the fabric. A suggested mechanism is also put forward to account for the shrinkage in area which occurs when a dry-relaxed fabric is placed in water.Keywords
