The document discusses different types of fabrics including knitted, woven, non-woven, and braided fabrics. Knitted fabrics are made by interlooping one or more yarns and can be made using various stitches like knit, purl, increase, and decrease. Woven fabrics interlace two sets of warp and weft yarns. Non-woven fabrics use mechanical or chemical bonding of fibers without weaving or knitting. Braided fabrics require at least three groups of yarns from one set. The document also provides examples of basic knitted fabrics like plain, ribbing, and interlock fabrics.

- 2. Over the long history of knitting across the world, hundreds of different knitting stitches have been created. The basic building blocks of all hand knitting are the following stitches: knit, purl, cast on, cast off (also known as bind off), increase and decrease stitches. Use of a combination of these methods can provide a vast number of different textures to knitted fabrics. In order to save space in knitting patterns, the names of stitches are normally abbreviated
