Abstract
This paper deals with the creation of geometrical models for presser-foot knitted 1 x 1 rib, interlock and half milano rib knitted fabrics as direct applications of the 1 x 1 rib model given in Part I of this series of papers. The drawings of the models using 3DS-Max are shown and observed to be similar to the real fabrics through the photographs provided. The run-in ratio between the plain course and the rib course of half milano rib fabrics is emphasized as an important parameter for obtaining a stress-free structure, especially when using these fabrics as technical textiles.
