Asked by Queen Nielsen on Dec 12, 2021 FAQ



Auto Stripe or Engineering Stripe yarn dyed fabric. Feeder stripe fabric knitting way is different from engineering stripe. And also dying process is also different from solid color fabric. Solid color fabric being dye after fabric knitting.
Likewise,
The definition of feeder stripe fabric is fabric that has a repeating stripe. In a feeder stripe fabric the repeat is every 1/8 inch. What is the deference between feeder stripe knit and engineering stripe knit fabric?
Thereof, Feeder Stripes have a small repeat of the stripe design, which generally fits within 1.9 inches. Auto stripes have larger repeats of the stripes; for example, more than 1.9 inches. Engineered stripes have a design of the stripes which is not repeated in the garment. The size of the repeat depends on the size of the garment.
One may also ask,
Solid color fabric being dye after fabric knitting. But in case of yarn dyed fabric first need to dye yarn according required color then fabric dye with colored yarn. Feeder stripe has a small repeating unit approximately 1.9 inch.
Subsequently,
Auto stripes have larger repeats of the stripes; for example, more than 1.9 inches. Engineered stripes have a design of the stripes which is not repeated in the garment. The size of the repeat depends on the size of the garment. Where one repeat ends in the fabric during knitting, the next garment starts.
