This involves interlacing two sets of yarns at right angles by means of a loom.&nbsp; Cloth is also made by knitting where a succession of loops is made with each row interlocking with the one below it. This can be done by hand with knitting needles or by machine. Other methods are less common, such as crocheting and tatting, and will not be covered in this module. Non-woven fabrics are made directly from fibers so the yarn stage is omitted.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id342_28af83-6c >
