Knits

Knits are comfortable to wear because they stretch. However,

 

this means that knits are more likely to be stretched and

 

damaged when washed (especially bulky knits). Knits made of

 

synthetic fabrics such as polyester, nylon, and acrylic tend to

 

keep their original shape more than a knit made of cotton or

 

ramie.
