🧵 Knitting Calculation Engine
GSM + Fabric Type
→ Everything Automated
Yarn count, loop length, machine gauge, K/T/M pattern, production rate — no manual calculation needed.
g/m²
Dia + Gauge + RPM will give exact production rates (kg/hr, shift, day).
Target Width → system recommends the exact single optimal Dia. Leave blank for the standard economical machine.

Yarn Specification (grade, spinning system & form)
Quality hierarchy: Supima/Giza (ELS) › Combed › Carded › Open-End › Recycled.
The engine returns strength (RKM/CSP), evenness (U%), spinnability check & price index.
Spinning system also drives spirality. Sources: Klein, Uster Statistics 2018.
Real count-based prices from SM Spinning Mills (2 May 2026). Add-ons per price-list footnotes:
White +$0.10 cotton/+$0.05 blend · Organic +$0.60 (GOTS/OCS) · Slub +$0.30 · Ecovero +$0.45 · At-Sight −$0.05.
Finishing & Quality (boosts shrinkage accuracy)
Finishing route is the #1 driver of residual shrinkage — compacted ≈ half of greige.
Based on Munden relaxation theory · tested per AATCC 135 / AATCC 179.
Warp Knit (optional)
16+ calculations in <50ms · No internet needed for form input
