In the knitting method, yarn is manipulated to create a textile or fabric, often used in many types of garments. Knitting creates multiple
Loops of yarn, called stitches, in a line or tube. Knitting has multiple
active stitches on the needle at one time. Knitted fabric consists of a number of consecutive rows of intermeshing of loops. As each row progresses, a newly created loop is pulled through one or more loops
from the prior row, placed on the gaining needle, and the loops from
the prior row are then pulled off the other needle.
