Figure 2: Dimensional Stability of samples of different structure Knitted structures have important influence on_ the dimensional stability of the knitted fabrics. From Figure 2 it is observed that with the increase of tuck stitch width shrinkage increases and length shrinkage decreases. Thus double lacoste has higher width shrinkage than single lacoste but less length shrinkage than single lacoste.

Table 2: Color fastness to rubbing of different knitted fabrics Table 3: Color fastness to light of different knitted fabrics Knitted structures do not have major influence on color fastness to washing, color fastness to rubbing and color fastness to light of the knitted fabric if processing parameters remains same. From Table 2, Table 3 and Table 4 it can be seen that knitted structures do not have major influence on color fastness to rubbing, color fastness to light and color fastness to washing respectively.

Knit fabric with tuck stitches appears wider than normal knit structures. Though all the samples were finished at same diameter, to see the effect of knit structure on the fabric diameter grey diameter of the samples were taken. From Figure 4 it is seen that with the increase of tuck loop fabric diameter increases. Therefore, double lacoste appears wider than single lacoste and single lacoste appears wider than plain jersey.

The extent of pilling is assessed visually comparison with arbitrary standards 1, 2, 3, 4,5, where 5 denotes no change in fabric surface i.e. zero pilling and 1 denotes the maximum pilling. From Figure 3 it is seen that with the increase of tuck loop and areal density resistance to pilling increases. So double lacoste shows higher resistance to pilling than single lacoste and single lacoste shows higher resistance to pilling than double lacoste.
