What are the main differences between Raschel blankets and acrylic blankets?

Both Raschel and acrylic blankets belong to the knitted blanket series, and their performance varies greatly due to different weaving methods.

Warp knitted Raschel blankets are woven using a warp knitted Raschel double needle bed loom. Due to the fact that the product is woven in the warp direction, all wool yarns are involved in weaving into loops without any stretching connection between them. Moreover, due to the use of hundreds or thousands of warp yarns simultaneously, the dimensional stability of the product is excellent, and there is basically no shedding after the finished product. Moreover, due to the uniform distribution of yarns, the tension of the yarn is consistent, Make the fleece of the entire blanket fluffy, with a uniform density of fleece, moderate elasticity, and strong bristling sensation. Due to the use of any external conditions during shaping and weaving, the size and fuzz of the product remain almost unchanged after washing.

Warp knitted acrylic blankets are woven using a weft knitting machine with yarn feeding in the middle. Due to the fact that weft knitted products are woven with one or several yarns, the coils can be extended to each other, and the height of the coils varies with external tension, resulting in unstable dimensions of the entire product. To produce a product of a certain specification, the corresponding size and weight are all under post-processing conditions (such as back sizing and shaping). However, modified products are likely to return to their original state after washing, and due to the fact that the wool yarn does not participate in looping, the shedding rate is much higher than that of warp knitted products, which is not washable.
