Warp knit fabric is a type of knitted textile made by interlocking yarns in a vertical (warp) direction, unlike weft knits which loop yarns horizontally. This structure gives warp knits excellent stability, durability, and resistance to runs or ladders.
Known for its smooth surface, slight stretch, and non-curling edges, warp knit fabric is often used in activewear, swimwear, lingerie, linings, and outerwear, depending on its weight and finish.
It’s breathable, easy to care for, and offers a great balance between the comfort of knitwear and the structure of woven fabrics — making it a go-to for both performance and fashion garments.
