Question

_____________ is a method by which yarn is manipulated to create a textile or fabric.
A. Knitting
B. Spinning
C. Weaving
D. Ginning

Answer 1

Hint: The method that is used to create textile or fabric is a very old process. It requires multiple stitching from the needle at one time. A lot of loops are created which are interlocked among each other, during the process.

Complete answer:
In order to answer our question, let us first learn about the methods that are used in the manufacturing of yarn. They are knitting, spinning, weaving and ginning.
Spinning: Spinning is the process of drawing out fibres from a particular mass of a body and twisting the fibres in such a way that it forms a continuous thread together. There are three types of spinning, namely mule spinning, ring spinning and hand spinning.
Weaving: In the process of weaving, there are two sets of yarns. They are interlaced with each other to form a cloth or fabric, at right angles. These two sets of yarns/threads are called warp and weft respectively.
Ginning: In the process of ginning, the unwanted seeds and debris are removed from the cotton. The modern way of ginning requires the cotton to dry up, so that the moisture gets removed. Then the unwanted seeds, burs, stem, leaves and other materials are removed. Hence, it is the process of removing unwanted material.
Knitting: In knitting, multiple loops of the yarn are created inside a line or a tube. During the process, multiple active stitches are required on the needle at a time. The fabrics which are knitted have interlocking loops which are arranged in consecutive rows. On the progression of each row, a new loop is created which is pulled through the loops from previous rows.
So, knitting is the method by which yarn is manipulated to create textile or fabric.

Hence, we obtain our answer as option A.

Note:
Knitting is a process that can be don’t both by hand or by the use of advanced knitting machines. Special types of needles are used for knitting. The most common example of the product obtained from knitting is the sweater we wear during winters.
