Jacquard stripe

Fabric View

Properties

• Double jersey fabric / double-bed fabric
• When using many colors, a high stitch ratio between picture side and back side is the result.
  Result: the picture side turns unclear

Examples

2 color jacquard stripe

2 colors must be knitted one after the other to get a complete jacquard row (= picture row). Each color is knitted on all needles on the jacquard back.
The stitch ratio between the front and the rear needle bed with a 2 color jacquard with stripe is 1: 2.

3 color jacquard stripe

4 color jacquard stripe

4 colors must be knitted one after the other to get a complete jacquard row (= picture row).
The stitch ratio between the front and the rear needle bed with a 4 color jacquard with stripe is 1: 4. This stitch ratio distorts the look of the picture side, wherefore the twill back is used in case of a large quantity of colors.
