Abstract

This study is to consider and analyze knitting techniques showing folds and suggest the design of mufflers using various folded knit structures. And on top of that this is to suggest the possible expansion of knit design areas and to be a help to development of knit designs contributing to high value knit products. The main process is as follows. After researching real materials with folded knit structures, the researcher classified them into five knitting techniques and analyzed the traits of structures and knitting methods. Based on the result of the process, the researcher developed the knitting structures using folds and produced nine items of knit mufflers to which folded knit structures were applied. The results of this study is as in the following. First, knitting techniques using folds are various and the various folds styles can be applied to the knitting products with simple techniques if only the traits of structures are comprehended. Second, even though it is the same knitting technique, the patterns of the folds can be expressed differently according to the position where you apply to the technique. And the folds can be expressed more effectively if more than two kinds of structures are applied. Third, differing from folded fabric, the folds of knit products are made more natural in knitting process and remain consistent. Fourth, mufflers made using knitting folds shows its own unique silhouette and three-dimensional effect according to the wearing style and the move of the wearer.
