120 K. M. Faridul Hasan: Study On The Changes of GSM (GM/M) of Grey Knitted Fabric From Pretreatment To Finishing

The document discusses the relationship between yarn count, fabric structure, stitch length, and finished gram per square meter (GSM) of various knitted fabrics. It provides a table comparing the yarn count, stitch length, finished diameter or width, and finished GSM for different fabric types including plain single jersey, single lacoste, 1x1 rib, 2x1 left rib, 2x2 rib, and 2x2 left/right rib. The key factors that determine a fabric's GSM are its yarn count, stitch length, and courses and wales per unit length.
