Tricot
Tricot is a type of knitting technique used primarily in fabric production, created by interlocking yarns on a machine called a tricot loom. The process involves guiding yarns through sets of needles to produce a smooth, durable fabric with a fine texture. Tricot fabric is known for its stretchability, strength, and resistance to runs, making it popular for garments like lingerie, sportswear, and lining materials. Its characteristic non-raveling edges and stretchy quality result from the specific arrangement of yarns and stitches, which provides both comfort and structural integrity in finished products.
