This project deals with the prediction of knitted fabric weight per unit area using appropriate software called 'proKNIT'. The software has been designed according to existing bibliography and has the ability of determining the weight of knitted fabrics in different relaxing conditions by entering process and material variables i.e. type of fabric and fiber, knitting machine gauge, yarn count, fabric loop length and tightness factor. The prediction of the fabric weight is dependent upon the dimensional parameters of Kc, Kw, Ks and R, which have been fed into the system. Therefore, 'proKNIT' has the ability of calculating the fabric weight of single and double knit structures, i.e. plain-knit, purl, 1X1 rib, 2X2 rib and interlock, for natural fibres such as cotton/cotton blends and wool/wool blends.
