니트웨어가 가지고 있는 신축성은 우븐 페브릭으로 제작한 옷과 비교했을 때, 옷을 입었을 때의 편안함과 관리의 수월함을 제공하며, 이러한 니트웨어의 특성은 현대의 라이프 스타일에 맞는 경쟁력을 가지고 있다. 현대인의 생활은 단지 일에만 치중하며 사는 것이 아니라 여행, 사회적 참여 그리고 운동 등을 하며 개개인의 삶을 더욱 중요시 여기는 형태로 변해가고 있다. 따라서 손이 많이 가고 관리하기 힘든 옷을 위해 쓰는 시간은 점점 줄어들고, 캐주얼이나 정장에 관계없이 편안하고 관리하기 쉬운 옷을 선호하며 살아가고 있다. 이러한 경향은 패션산업시장에 직접 반영되어 관리하기 쉽고 입기에 편안한 니트웨어는 패션 시장 안에서 점점 더 많은 부분을 차지하고 개발되어지고 있는 실정이다. 하지만 현재 니트웨어 시장은 니트조직을 개발하고 표현하는 데에 있어 공장의 기술자 중심으로 이루어지고 있어 제한된 스타일의 니트조직이 대부분의 시장을 차지하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 창의력을 가진 니트 디자이너와 현대인의 감수성을 만족시킬 수 있는 니트 조직의 개발은 현대 패션시장에서 매우 중요한 과제로 남아있다고 할 수 있다. 또한 CAD를 사용하는 산업용 니팅머신은 독특한 텍스추어를 가진 니트웨어의 대량 생산을 위해 꼭 필요한 아이템이라고 할 수 있다. 이러한 시대의 요구에 맞추어 연구자는 이번 연구를 통해 현재 니트웨어 시장에 나와 있는 조직과는 차별화 된 4가지 니트조직을 CAD로 디자인하고 산업용 니팅머신을 사용해 현실화하였으며, 니트웨어 디자인에 적용하여 실제의상으로 제작해 보았다. 이 연구를 통해 얻어진 결과물이 현대인의 감수성을 만족시킬 수 있는 새로운 제안으로 현재 패션시장에 받아들여졌으면 하는 바람이다.

최근 라이프스타일의 변화에 따라 활동성이 편한 의복에 대한 수요의 증가로, 활동이 편안한 니트 의류에 대한 관심의 비중이 높아지고 있다. 그러나 니트는 고유한 물성적 특성으로 인하여 니트웨어의 사이즈 조절에 있어서는 많은 문제를 안고 있어, 다양하게 변화하는 니트웨어 착용자들의 요구에 맞추어 만족감을 줄 수 있도록 안정된 사이즈 체계의 확립이 필요한 실정이다. (중략)

The purpose of this study is to provide for the basic data useful to the high quality knitwear production. For this purpose, knit promotions that product knitwear for 20 age ∼ 30 middle age women were sampled to survey the fabric planning and production·quality management of knitwear, and their directors were surveyed through direct interviews. Data is processed by a computer(SPSS) and analyzed by using frequency, percentage, mean. The results of this study are as fellows. 1. Most of the sample companies were getting smaller or pettier in terms of capital, number of employees. 2. Knit promotions were universally using acrid and wool as knit fabric. 3. Knitwear tended to be producted much in knit promotions. 4. It is needed to use high quality fabric and perform careful sewing for knitwear quality rising.

The purpose of this study is to summarize systematically and understand the characteristics of the production process of whole garments in order to develop knitwear using a real whole garment machine and propose this as a development case for high value added knitwear design. Concerning research methods, the study looked at existing research into whole garment knitwear and relevant data, data on websites, and the whole garment knitting machine made by Shima Seiki, a Japanese company, which has been the most commonly used machine in Korea. Also the study collected program data concerning a knitting machine and knitting by participating in the production process of whole garment knitwear, and the production line was filmed directly. In addition, the study conducted research into the development of knitwear design using the SWG-X 12 gauge. The conclusions obtained from the production process of whole garments and product development include the following. First, whole garment knitwear is appropriate for expressing a sophisticated look that makes the body appear to be in one form through natural connection without any seam allowance. Second, it is very suitable for response production since it does not go through the pattern, cutting, and processing stages. Furthermore, because of the consistent management of the entire process by computer control, it may be the highest cutting-edge fashion area in which planning and proposal style industry may be realizable. Third, it is easy to approach design through a programming process, and it is possible to develop diverse patterns; thereby, it is appropriate for producing high value added knitwear products.

This article investigates the production process of knitwear focused on patterns and armhole forms in order to provide basic data for its value-added production. This study was based on empirical data obtained by questionnaires given to 51 respondents employed at knitwear companies. The data had been statistically analyzed with frequency analysis, one-way ANOVA, and Duncan test. The results of this study are the following: First, many knitwear companies used knitting machines, which had gauges as high as 14G. Second, most knitwears companies did not use patterns in the production process. Third, most knitwear companies produced knitwears in which armhole lines were different between the front part and back part of the body, while identical between the front and back parts of the sleeves. Fourth, people with experience in the knitwear industry had the tendency to recognize that armhole lines should be different between the front part of both the body and sleeves and their back part as well, and workers in charge of knitting recognized better than programmers and designers did. Considering the opinions of experienced workers that armhole lines differ between the front and back parts of both the body and sleeves would improve the appearance of knitwear, this study also suggests knitwear patterns of 10G and 16G by using ESMODE's basic knitwear pattern.
