What is circular knitting ?
Circular knitting is a method of creating knitted fabric using a circular needle instead of straight needles. The needle is connected in a circle, allowing for continuous knitting in the round. This technique is often used to create seamless tubes of fabric, such as in the production of socks, hats, and sweaters. It is also used in the production of textiles for various industrial applications, such as medical textiles, automotive textiles, and geotextiles. Circular knitting can be done by hand or by machine.
