In this work a model of miss stitch and its effect on the plain knitted fabric structure are introduced for the first time, thus we present a pioneering basic work on knit and miss combinations. Photographs of knitted samples were taken and the assumptions of the model are based on these photographs. A geometrical model of this knit and miss combination is created and the model is drawn to scale. We show that these shapes are found to be exactly the same shapes as observed in real fabrics.

Key Words: geometrical modeling • plain knitted fabric • miss stitch
