Textile fabrics can be woven or knitted. For hemp the same techniques can be used as for flax (and other fibres). There are different ways of weaving: Flat weaving (§7.4.2.1), Jacquard weaving (§7.4.2.2) and terry cloth weaving (§7.4.2.3). For knitting, 2 techniques are available: Weft knitting (§7.4.3.1) and warp knitting (§7.4.3.2). Prior to weaving, some preparatory activities are required (§7.4.1). After weaving, often finishing of textiles (§7.4.4) and after-treatments are applied (§7.4.5).
