Abstract
It is shown experimentally that, for practical purposes, the geometrical properties of worsted 1 × 1 rib fabrics can be described by sets of k values similar to those used for plain-knitted fabrics. The results obtained are fitted to a simple model of the 1 × 1 rib stitch based on Leaf's model of the plain-knitted loop, and some causes and effects of deviation from this model are discussed.
