Here's how I care for the things I have been knitting. Like weaving, knitting is a technique for producing a two-dimensional fabric from a one-dimensional yarn or thread.
Knitted garments became fashionable for the wealthy upper class, and silk gloves and stockings were highly prized. This takes longer to dry and I suggest changing to a dry towel and flipping the sweater over so it dries quicker. Often books give step by step instructions as well as a general knitting overview.
If the fibers are first aligned by combing them, the yarn is smoother and called a worsted; by contrast, if the fibers are carded but not combed, the yarn is fuzzier and called woolen-spun. However, such circular wales are possible using Swiss darning, a form of embroidery, or by knitting a tube separately and attaching it to the knitted fabric. In turn, the red loops secure the white loops just below them, which in turn secure the loops below them, and so on.
