INTRODUCTION Knitted fabrics are the preferred structures in athletic wear in which demand for comfort is a key requirement. Fabric properties are an important matter to produced athletic fabrics. In this study, an experimental work is presented to determine the effects of stitch length on plain single jersey cotton fabric with lycra and without lycra. The experimental work is going through various tests, test results, graphical representation and remarks on the test. Dimensional properties, pilling resistance, spirality, fabric thickness, and some color fastness test are analyzed to get information about the effect of stitch length on plain single jersey fabric. From the analyses of variance, it is seen that the effects of stitch length on the dimension and properties of the Plain single fabrics inspected are highly significant.

Tests on Dyed Sample Fabric Color fastness to Rubbing Color Fastness to Wash Color Fastness to Perspiration
SPIRALITY Spirality can be defined as a fabric condition resulting when the knitted wales and courses are angularly displaced from that ideal perpendicular angle. In other words, Spirality" arises from twist stress in the constituent’s yarns of plain fabric, causing all loops to distort and throwing the fabric wales and courses into an angular relationship other than 90 degree.

PILING Pilling is a surface defect of textiles caused by wear, and is considered unsightly. It happens when washing and wearing of fabrics causes loose fibres to begin to push out from the surface of the cloth, and, over time, abrasion causes the fibres to develop into small spherical bundles, anchored to the surface of the fabric by protruding fibres that haven't broken.

GSM The GSM of fabric is one kind of specification of fabric which is very important for a textile engineer for understanding and production of fabric. ‘GSM’ means ‘Gram per square meter’ that is the weight of fabric in gram per one square meter. By this we can compare the fabrics in unit area which is heavier and which is lighter. There are two formulas for calculating the GSM of a knitted fabric Course per inch X Stitch length X 39.37 X 39.37 X Tex GSM = ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1000 X 1000 And WPI X CPI X SL (mm) GSM = ----------------------------- X 0.9155 Count (Ne)

COURSES PER INCH Courses per inch mean how many numbers of courses are present in one inch. It is also very important for calculation of knitted fabric GSM. WALES PER INCH Wales per inch means how many numbers of wales are present in one inch, it is very important for calculation of knitted fabric GSM and fabric properties. Calculation of Fabric Width We calculated the fabric width by using following formula – Total no of Wales/Total no of needle Fabric Width (open width) = --------------------------------------------- WPI

DIMENSIONAL STABILITY This is a test method for measuring the changes in fabric dimension when subjected to changing humidity conditions. The dimensional stability relating properties, namely relaxation shrinkage and hygral expansion, are measured. Relaxation shrinkage is defined as the percentage change in dry dimensions of fabric measured after 30-minute relaxation in water at room temperature. Hygral expansion is defined as the percentage change in dimensions of relaxed fabric from wet condition to dry condition.

CONCLUSION The contributions and incessant efforts of all the group members to complete the project report are highly appreciative. The challenging environment in 21stcentury demands that textile education should be meaningful and responsive to develop a mechanism to produce dynamic and technically competitive human resource in order to meet the challenges of the global world. Right and effective strategies needs to be adopted for affecting quality improvements in textile education thereby making it relevant and useful not only for the sustained growth and development of the textile institutes but also in serving the societies in a progressive way.
