Stoll-ikat plating® The aesthetic output of Stoll-ikat-plating® can be best compared to ikat patterns where space-dyed weft yarns form a horizontally blurred pattern.

A similar effect can be achieved in knitting fabrics with Stoll-ikat-plating® on Stoll ADF machines. As with any other knitting technique, Stoll-ikat-plating® impacts the design and development of knitted fabrics. This technique increases the repertoire of printed effects and enables...
