Jacquard knitting
Jacquard knitting is a technique that allows complex patterns and images to be created within fabrics by controlling the yarns. It utilizes a special loom or knitting machine equipped with a mechanism called a jacquard system, which manages individual yarns based on digital or punched card instructions. This enables precise placement of different colored yarns, resulting in detailed, multi-colored designs integrated directly into the fabric. The method is commonly used for decorative textiles like patterned sweaters, upholstery, and intricate scarves, providing both artistic detail and technical versatility.
