What is Knitted Cotton?
1 , the definition of knitted cotton
Knitted cotton, also called Tianzhu cotton, is a kind of cotton fabric woven by knitting technology. In essence, knitted cotton is still cotton, but the texture is slightly different from that of our common bedding fabrics.
Our common bedding fabrics (plain weave , twill, satin) are generally woven processes. The knitting texture is the same as that of a sweater, while the woven texture is smoother like gauze. The most fundamental difference between knitted fabrics and woven fabrics is the different weaving methods. The different weaving methods also create different feel of the fabrics.
2. Knitting Characteristics of cotton
Knitting Cotton is made by bending yarns into loops and interlocking them with knitting needles. The texture is softer and waxier than woven cotton, breathable, skin-friendly, soft and elastic. Knitted cotton can usually achieve Class A safety level, so it is often used in the production of infant clothing and underwear.

How to choose Buying a knitted cotton four-piece set?
1 , pay attention to the feeling of sleep, the first choice is high weight
The way knitted cotton fabrics are spun will increase the number of exposed fibers, and the daily friction area will increase, which will cause knitted cotton to be more prone to pilling than ordinary pure cotton. However, high-weight fabrics are thicker, which can avoid Pilling problem does not occur, but it is softer, skin-friendly, and more comfortable.
Gram weight refers to fabric per square meter The weight in grams is an important indicator of knitted cotton fabrics. For example, the weight of 1 square meter of knitted fabric is 150g, which is expressed as 150g/㎡, etc. The higher the weight of the fabric, the higher the price. On the contrary, the lower the price, the lighter the fabric and the easier it is to pilling. If you don’t know the weight, you can choose based on the count. The higher the count, the softer and more delicate the fabric will be.
2. Be alert For counterfeit chemical fiber products, read the product label carefully
In the article introducing the tricky things about washed cotton fabrics, “Don’t be fooled!” The washed cotton you buy is not necessarily pure cotton! “”, mentioned: “It is impossible to buy pure cotton bedding at a price below 100, unless the merchant loses money to divert traffic.”
Knitted cotton is the same as washed cotton. Polyester can also be woven into so-called “knitted cotton” using knitting technology, so when buying low-priced washed cotton , remember to check the fabric ingredients. No matter what the slogan says, just look for the product parameters or label to indicate the ingredients.
3. Be careful when buying three non-explosive models, the brand will be more secure
Although most knitted cotton can achieve Class A safety level, it is cheap and explosive. The fiber content and formaldehyde content of the bedding products are often not guaranteed, and health problems such as rashes and skin itching may occur if covered on the body.
The brand will do a better job in quality control. With the brand as an endorsement, it will be more convenient to safeguard rights if problems are discovered after purchasing the product. , the quality will be more guaranteed.
