Generally, the twist coefficient of woven yarn is about 380, while knitting yarn only needs about 340. For example, 40s single yarn, the twist of woven yarn is 99 twists/10cm, while the twist of knitting yarn is about 88-89 twists.
Knitted fabrics need a soft feel, so the twist required is relatively small. For woven fabrics, the warp yarns need to be reeds to increase friction and require high strength, so the twist requirements are relatively large! In short, the general fine gauze is woven, and the mesh structure is knitted.
