16、ternational Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee h
17、as been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical
18、 standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodi
19、es for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any
20、or all such patent rights. ISO 23606 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles, Subcommittee SC 20, Fabric descriptions.

21、ternational Standard specifies various systems of symbolic notation and pattern design for knitted fabrics. The symbolic notations contained in this International Standard do not necessarily constitute the only method of representation. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the
22、following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 knitted fabrics generic name applied to textile fabrics in which at least one system of threads is formed into knitted loops and the knitted loops are intermeshed into stitches ISO 8388:1998, definition 3.0.1 NOTE Knitting machines classified according to I
23、SO 7839 are used. 2.2 weft-knitted fabrics generic name applied to knitted fabrics in which the stitches made by each thread are formed substantially across the width of the fabric NOTE 1 Weft-knitted fabrics are characterised by the fact that each weft thread is fed more or less at right angles to
24、the direction in which the fabric is produced. ISO 8388:1998, definition 3.0.2 NOTE 2 Weft-knitted fabrics are manufactured on flat or circular weft-knitting machines as classified in ISO 7839. 2.3 warp-knitted fabrics generic name applied to knitted fabrics in which the stitches made from each warp
25、 thread are formed substantially along the length of the fabric NOTE 1 Warp-knitted fabrics are characterised by the fact that each warp thread is fed more or less in line with the direction in which the fabric is produced. ISO 8388:1998, definition 3.0.3 NOTE 2 Warp-knitted fabrics are manufactured
26、 on flat or circular warp knitting machines as classified in ISO 7839. NOTE 3 Stitch-bonded fabrics are a special variation of warp-knitted fabrics manufactured on flat warp knitting machines in accordance with ISO 8640-4, which are equipped with stitch-through compound needles, etc. BS EN ISO 23606

28、 3.1.2 pattern draft diagrammatic representation of a knitted fabric carried out on a pattern drafting screen by taking stated divisions into account NOTE A distinction is made between a graphic pattern draft (3.1.2.1)and a technical pattern draft (3.1.2.2). 3.1.2.1 graphic pattern draft pictorial r
29、epresentation of a knitted fabric 3.1.2.2 technical pattern draft symbolic representation of the stitches of a knitted fabric read according to the manufacture of a knitted fabric from bottom to top NOTE 1 A technical pattern draft can be a two-dimensional representation on a grid or a linear repres
30、entation on matrix dots (yarn path). NOTE 2 A technical pattern draft is represented either as a construction pattern draft (3.1.2.2.1) or as a working pattern draft(3.1.2.2.2). 3.1.2.2.1 construction pattern draft symbolic representation of the structure of a knitted fabric 3.1.2.2.2 working patter

32、usly or separately for the technical pattern drafting of a knitted fabric. The construction can either be represented according to the knitted structure (construction pattern draft) or according to the manufacture (working pattern draft). 3.2.2 The pattern draft is built up according to the yarn pat
33、h from bottom to top. To achieve the representation of the yarn path, start with the left needle of the front needle carrier and finish with the right needle of the rear needle carrier. Knitting machines with short and long needles in their needle carriers have a long, first needle in their front ne
34、edle carrier. 3.2.3 The technical pattern draft provides options of representation for each stitch element and its variations. The pattern draft can, however, be shortened by drafting the repeats of the ground pattern into the left bottom corner of the pattern draft field and by entering only the va
35、riation from the ground pattern in the remaining pattern draft fields (abbreviated representation). If in doubt, the complete representation is mandatory. 3.2.4 A horizontal row of the technical pattern draft is equivalent to a single manufactured stitch course. 3.2.5 A working pattern draft of, e.g
36、. a fleecy fabric, requires a multi-row design. 3.2.6 In two-dimensional representations of transfer stitches, an additional mark of the stitch side is applied for purl-based fabrics by appropriate symbols for the technical face side and the technical reverse side next to the symbol for transfer sti
37、tches. 3.2.7 Auxiliary signs that refer to a crosswise row of the pattern draft (course) shall be arranged on the right side of the pattern draft. Auxiliary signs that refer to a lengthwise row of the pattern draft (wale) shall be arranged below the pattern draft. Auxiliary signs referring to a symb
38、ol shall be arranged inside the pattern draft below the appropriate symbol. 3.2.8 The pattern draft shall contain at least one pattern repeat for height and width. The pattern repeat shall be marked. BS EN ISO 23606:2009ISO 23606:2009(E) 4 ISO 2009 All rights reserved3.3 Pattern draft grids 3.3.1 Pa

40、 and a small vertical rectangle at a time, arranged next to each other and alternately in parallel lengthwise rows NOTE The large horizontal rectangles are used to mark stitch elements or processes on the front needle carrier. The small vertical rectangles are used to mark stitch elements or process
41、es on the rear needle carrier. 3.3.1.3 special grid vertical grid, applicable to interlock-based fabrics, with irregular, rectangular field divisions (as per 3.3.1.2 but rotated by 90) NOTE The large vertical rectangles are used to mark stitch elements or processes on the front needle carrier. The s
42、mall horizontal rectangles are used to mark stitch elements or processes on the rear needle carrier. aThe examples given show three frequently used pattern grids.
