What is sweater knit fabric?

Sweater knit fabric refers to a soft, stretchable textile created by interlocking yarn loops rather than weaving. It mimics the structure of hand-knitted sweaters but is machine-produced on circular or flat-bed knitting machines. Common fibers include cotton, wool, acrylic, and blends. The material varies in gauge—from chunky to fine—and is widely used for pullovers, cardigans, and loungewear. Its elasticity, warmth, and drape make it ideal for both OEM and fashion-brand production.
